Progress in computing and the explosion of data has opened up astonishing prospects for mankind in many fields: the development of science, robotics enabling the exploration of naturally inaccessible areas, improved comfort, intercommunication and medicine.

Come and join us for this webinar on the international day of Women and Girls in Science.

The moderator of the seminar is Jessica Johnson, Communications Director of Foratom

Jean Magne, co-author of the book “Fascinante AI” will tell us more on the challenges and opportunities of AI and propose to designers and users, whether they are decision-makers or simple actors, an analysis and recommendations grid to guide their reflections and direct their actions towards securing A.I.

Valérie Gautard will address one specific aspect of AI: machine learning.

She is responsible for an informal group, called IntheArt . InTheArt is a project which aims to bring together different institutes around Machine Learning and more generally around artificial intelligence. This project is led by the programme DRF (direction de recherche fondamentale) Impulsion within CEA (Commissariat à l’énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives)

"To rise to the challenges of the 21st century, we need to harness our full potential. That requires dismantling gender stereotypes. On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science, let’s pledge to end the gender imbalance in science" -UN Secretary-General António Guterres
