From Cybernetics to Transformers: A brief look at the long history of artificial intelligence
Ever since humans have existed, we have dreamed of having intelligent machines that help us with our work and give us more free time. We have been working on the mathematical, technical, psychological, and even philosophical skills and knowledge required to realize this age-old dream, and it seems we have finally succeeded. This lecture provides a brief overview of the more than 2,000-year history of artificial intelligence.
Artificial Intelligence in the Natural Sciences: Opportunities and Challenges
Recent developments in the field of artificial intelligence point to a paradigm shift in scientific practice within the natural sciences. What opportunities are emerging from agent-based systems, vibe coding, and autonomous laboratories? This presentation highlights several recent developments that raise questions about the role of the “human-in-the-loop,” science communication, and the need to adapt education in the natural sciences.
