The AI Queens* of Bonn
The Sustainable AI Lab at the University of Bonn is starting a new lecture series: The AI Queens* of Bonn. These events are meant to offer anyone from the Bonn area, who feels underrepresented in AI practice, research, or education, a space to connect and share their experience.
Every quartile, we will invite another guest speaker to share some insights about work or research on artificial intelligence.
