Transparency & intelligence? Advancing artificial intelligence with Open Science

This panel addresses a vital question in our current times: What challenges and opportunities arise at the intersection of Open Science and Artificial Intelligence? How can the principles of Open Science be applied to the field of artificial intelligence? To address these and related questions, a group of speakers working at the intersection of science, technology and society will debate challenges and practices to be considered when integrating Open Science into AI technologies.

Data and knowledge: public goods or commercial assets?

This panel explores questions related to the use of open data in areas that span from academic research to journalism. For example, who owns published data and who is responsible for its protection? What regulations already exist, and are there any areas that require further action or development? When considering open data in a broader social context, what added value does Open Science provide to society? And what responsibilities arise from it? To address these questions, this panel features a varied group of speakers from journalism, academia, economy and scientific funding organizations.

Speaker: Markus Beckedahl, Founder of Netzpolitik.org; Dr. Sebastian Brandt, DFG; Dr. Nicki Lisa Cole, Open and Responsible Research Group, Graz University of Technology; Prof. Dr. Gerhard Lauer, Book Studies, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz; Yann Mahé, Managing Director Company MyScienceWork
