Summer School of Artificial Intelligence and Society 2025 (BIFOLD, Weizenbaum Institute, SCIoI)

TU-Campus EUREF, EUREF-Campus 9, 10829 Berlin-Schöneberg. EUREF-Campus, Germany

As artificial intelligence (AI) reshapes the landscape of scientific discovery, the need for openness, transparency, and reproducibility in research has never been more urgent. The 2025 Berlin Summer School on Artificial Intelligence and Society, jointly organized by the Berlin Institute for the Foundations of Learning and Data (BIFOLD), the Weizenbaum Institute for the Networked Society,

Elena Simperl (King’s College London), “Open Data Infrastructure in the Age of Generative AI”

TU-Campus EUREF, EUREF-Campus 9, 10829 Berlin-Schöneberg. EUREF-Campus 10829 Germany

Open data infrastructure refers to the systems, frameworks, and processes put in place to collect, store, manage, and share data generated or held by government, science, and other public institutions. It is meant to ensure that public data is accessible, high-quality, secure, and usable by a wide range of stakeholders, including the public. For more

Katrin Frisch (Ombuds Committee for Research Integrity in Germany), “Maintaining Integrity when Using AI in Your Research”

TU-Campus EUREF, EUREF-Campus 9, 10829 Berlin-Schöneberg. EUREF-Campus 10829 Germany

Abstract: Since the release of ChatGPT and other generative AI applications, research institutions as well as various stakeholders such as research funders and publishers have been discussing how the use of AI in research should be dealt with from the perspective of research integrity. While a consensus on some matters was quickly reached, other issues

2025 Berlin Summer School on Artificial Intelligence and Society

Sören Auer (TIB – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University Library), “Neuro-symbolic AI for Open Science”

TU-Campus EUREF, EUREF-Campus 9, 10829 Berlin-Schöneberg. EUREF-Campus 10829 Germany

Abstract: We explore how neuro-symbolic AI, i.e., combining neural networks with symbolic knowledge representation, can drive the next generation of open, transparent, and responsible scientific research. By combining the adaptability of machine learning with the interpretability of structured knowledge, neuro-symbolic approaches offer powerful tools for enhancing reproducibility, semantic interoperability, and trust in AI-driven science. With examples
