LU Internal Contribution and/or Participation in AI Nordic Powwow in Lund 16 May 2024

Since 2019, but first annual :-)

In May 2019 AI* Nordic Powwow filled Lundagård with  curious and knowledgeable AI-interested persons. In May 2023 we came back after the pandemic. Now, on 16th May 2024, AI* Nordic Powwow will celebrate the first of, hopefully, many annual occurrences!

AF-borgen is booked and we expect interesting and mind-blowing talks and discussions. We aim for a joint track during the morning session followed by an afternoon with thematic tracks on different topics. Dinner and entertainment in the evening.

When: 16 May 2024 prel. 9.30 to 23.59

Where: Af-borgen, Sandgatan 2 (and surroundings), Lund Sweden

Language: Some tracks will be in Swedish and some tracks will be in English.

Keynotes in the morning session

  • Jan Erik Solem, Founder of the companies Polar Rose and Mapillary which were then sold to Apple and Facebook respectively.
  • Lilian Edwards, Internationally recognised expert and professor (Newcastle University, Alan Turing Institute and Ada Lovelace Institute) who has worked on AI law since 1985.
  • David Kaye, Former UN rapporteur for "Promotion and Protection of the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression". Expert on how the internet and AI can be used to promote/prevent democracy and freedom of expression.
