Science Accelerates

AI may one day outsmart us, but in the meantime, the technology is helping us make great strides in many areas. Thanks to AI, emergency services can save more lives, roads become safer and robots work more efficiently. At the same time, VUB scientists are also asking critical questions about the impact of AI on education, work and democracy, and about the role a university can play in this regard: “Universities must look 20 years ahead,” says AI pioneer Luc Steels. “Not at what works today, but at what will be possible tomorrow.” Read all about it in this new edition of VUB Tomorrow.
