4YFN25 Opening Session: an AI-Powered Future

Описание: Artificial Intelligence is not just a technological breakthrough; it is the defining force of our era, reshaping industries, economies, and societies at an unprecedented pace. At 4YFN we’ll tackle the burning questions that are reshaping industries: how is AI supercharging business productivity and fast-tracking innovation? What cutting-edge opportunities and business models are emerging from this AI revolution? And what happens when AI steps out of the digital realm and into the physical world?

To kick off 4YFN 2025, we welcomed Dr. Jürgen Schmidhuber, widely regarded as the father of modern AI, who will offer his visionary perspective on the current AI revolution.

Dr. Schmidhuber explores the transformative potential of AI, examining how far we’ve come and how close we are to realizing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). With a balanced lens, he illuminates the vast possibilities that the ongoing AI wave brings, from supercharged productivity to groundbreaking applications across physical and digital realms. This thought-provoking session challenges us to envision a future where AI transcends today’s limitations, inspiring founders, investors, and innovators to lead the charge in this era of limitless opportunity.
