Fraunhofer Talks AI

 Good comments, broadly stated, worth a further look.

Fraunhofer Strategic Research Field

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial intelligence, cognitive systems and machine learning play a crucial role in the future transformation of the economy and society. The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft develops key technologies for AI and their applications at many institutes. Our research makes significant contributions to the development of secure, trustworthy and resource-efficient AI technologies and is closely oriented to the practical needs of companies and society.

They will not take over - but artificial intelligence systems will take over more and more tasks in factories, offices and everyday life: they control the autonomous car, make medical diagnoses and protect against cyber attacks. Numerous industries will be radically changed by these technologies - and will benefit from them. Artificial intelligence and technologies from its environment are therefore one of the most important digital topics of the future and play a decisive role in the future transformation of the economy and society.

AI is a strategic resource. A global race for these economically and strategically crucial technologies has therefore begun. A deficit of own competencies leads to dependencies on actors who, for example, have lower standards in data protection, security and algorithmic traceability, which endangers the technological sovereignty and competitiveness of Germany and Europe.

The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft develops AI technologies at numerous institutes for applications in all sectors and areas - from automotive solutions to medical technology and non-destructive testing. The trustworthiness and security of the systems, their energy efficiency and the combination of expert knowledge with data-driven machine learning for better traceability of AI algorithms are always central.
