The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Research: Matej Antol on AI at Google Leaders Connect
Google AI Leaders Connect brought together experts from the fields of artificial intelligence, research, business, and public administration.
The RI-SCALE project, in which Masaryk University is involved, has been accepted for funding under the prestigious Horizon Europe program. The project, which will run for 36 months, is titled "Unlocking RI potential with Scalable AI and Data" and aims to significantly advance the use of data and artificial intelligence in scientific research.
RI-SCALE addresses the challenges posed by the rapid development of AI, the increasing size and complexity of scientific data, and the growing demands on research software, all of which play a crucial role in scientific discoveries. The project’s primary objective is to develop Data Exploitation Platforms (DEPs) that will enable scientists, RI operators, and industry stakeholders to harness the potential of data and AI fully. These platforms will host scientific datasets alongside pre-configured AI frameworks and models on high-performance computing resources. Researchers from the BioMedAI project will contribute specifically to the application of AI in medicine, the scalability of computational and storage capacities, and advancements in digital pathology.
The project's principal investigator for Masaryk University is Associate Professor Tomáš Brázdil, Ph.D. from the Faculty of Computer Science.
