There is ongoing work in the EU for a European strategy for AI in science. The University of Bergen has given five key inputs to the strategy process:
1) Trust and trustworthiness; 2) Cross-disciplinary and cross-sectoral collaboration; 3) Strengthening AI competence in all disciplines; 4) Responsible data sharing and strong infrastructure; and 5) Providing long-term funding for basic AI... Read more
Trond Mohn Reserach Foundation (TMF), Helse Bergen and the Faculty of Medicine have allocated 46 million* NOK in a joint effort to strengthen the use of AI in medical research in Bergen. Apply before 15 October at 12:00 (noon).
Researchers at the Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design (KMD) at the University of Bergen (UiB) have been given a central role in the new national research center MishMash – Center for AI and Creativity. The grant is part of the national initiative on artificial intelligence (AI) and marks an important breakthrough for artistic research in the face of emerging technologies.
Hybrid intelligence is the future, according to Professor Barbara Wasson. She will head the new research centre AI LEARN, which will conduct research on the interaction between human and artificial intelligence (AI) over the next five years.
University of Bergen professors Barbara Wasson and Jan-Ove Færstad are among the experts in the new committee that will provide advice on how artificial intelligence (AI) can benefit students, universities, colleges, and society.
The University of Bergen is represented by four of the 19 finalists in the national competition to establish new AI centres. Discover the candidates here.
”Since so much of AI research is driven by commercial forces, societal impact often becomes an afterthought, rather than something that has to be studied on a fundamental level”
In the chemistry lab on the fourth floor of the Realfagbygget, Professor Vidar Remi Jensen's research group combines artificial intelligence with virtual and robot-based searches for the next generation of medicines, catalysts, and sustainable fuels.
The success of DeepSeek shows an interesting example where funding is the means to research and innovation and not directly the end goal.
The AI center initiative, Digital Learning Communities AI Centre, led by Rune Johan Krumsvik, aims to increase AI competence in education. The researchers will build on findings about how AI can be used as a sparring partner in student assessments
The main goal of the centre is to transform the provision of weather, climate and environmental information to enable better- informed decisions in the face of unprecedented environmental challenges. All this by using artificial intelligence.
Marija Slavkovik, Head of Department and Professor of Artificial Intelligence at the Department of Information and Media Studies (Infomedia), was recently awarded the “Publication of the Decade” award at the NORA Annual Conference 2024.
The 12th UiB AI seminar gathered researchers, students and other interested to hear about the challenges of adapting systems of artificial intelligence to human values and goals. There seems to be no quick fix.
Master's student Camilla Anna Simonelli from the University of Pavia will spend the next half year at the Pandemic Centre. There she will finish her thesis focusing on the use of AI-models in health care trained on pandemic data.
How do we imagine artificial intelligence? Researchers from Infomedia have received support from the Research Council of Norway (RCN) to explore this timely question.
One of UiB's leading AI researchers, Marija Slavkovik, thinks there is a cost to not leaning into artificial intelligence.
UiB's Humanities Strategy awards professor Brita Ytre-Arne funds for research into artificial intelligence and how we assess what is real and true.
Digital skills are crucial in society, and the need to provide these for all is becoming increasingly urgent. UiB and partners discussed solutions and possibilities at an event in Brussels recently.
