Summer School of AI and Society
The Summer School is a collaborative initiative between SCIoI, BIFOLD, and the Weizenbaum Institute, in partnership with the national network of Germany’s AI Centres of Excellence: DFKI, Lamarr, MCML, ScaDS.AI, and TUEAI. It brings together Berlin’s vibrant ecosystem of AI research and underscores the city’s role as a hub for interdisciplinary collaboration and societal dialogue on the future of AI. Each institution offers a unique perspective: BIFOLD focuses on research in AI and data management; the Weizenbaum Institute investigates digital transformation and its impact on society; and SCIoI explores the principles of intelligence from a cross-disciplinary angle. Together, they offer a rich learning environment for researchers tackling the ethical and methodological challenges of contemporary AI.
