AIdeas


“If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.” (George Bernard Shaw)

What exactly is AIdeas?

It’s a sharing place where you can present the most innovative project, ideas or results of your AI related research activity – henceforth, we will call it your AIdea.

AIdeas is not merely about presenting your work. It’s about having the opportunity to discuss and explore your research interests with an Advisory Board of established researchers in Artificial Intelligence, providing a place for feedback and guidance on future research directions and further development of your AIdea.
