Objectives of the chair Accurate predictions of future weather conditions are essential for the safety of people and goods, and for the management of a wide range of economic activities. Since the mid-20th century, weather forecasting has relied on the physical modeling of atmospheric dynamics. Significant and steady improvements in the quality of these forecasts
Objectives of the chair Recent AI models have achieved remarkable success in specific domains (e.g. vision, language, robotic agent control), and there is a push towards ever larger models combining multiple input and output modalities. Inctheory, multimodal representations can help vision scientists by endowing sensory inputs with semantic information; similarly, linguists can use them to ground
Artificial intelligence (AI) is driving profound changes that can be seen in many areas—economics, healthcare, finance, the military, and more. Alongside the vast opportunities it presents come numerous risks that we still struggle to predict or even perceive. Because AI now permeates every corner of human activity, we must build a framework of trust that
