Rotterdam to Host Its Own AI Congress: 'Technological World Needs Physical Contact'
The Rotterdam platform AI010 will organize a large-scale AI congress at Theater Zuidplein on October 15, aiming to bring people together for physical interaction in an increasingly technological world. Organizer Laurens van Wesep emphasizes the importance of discussing how to use AI sustainably and safely, covering topics from work automation to ethics. He highlights that while many organizations in Rotterdam are already using AI, such as Helloprint, there is still much potential to be gained through smarter implementation. Van Wesep notes that AI offers benefits like time efficiency and improved quality, potentially helping doctors detect cancer more accurately, but also warns about disadvantages like the difficulty distinguishing real from fake content and its contribution to societal problems.
