FCAI and HIIT represented in the AI Action Summit in Paris
From Thursday the 6th to Friday the 7th, a conference on AI, Science and Society took place in Palaiseau outside of Paris. The conference included high-level speakers, such as Michael Jordan, Wendy Hall, Yann LeCun, Bernhard Schölkopf and Yoshua Bengio. The conference pointed out that there is so much more to AI than the LLMs that are now popular in the AI discussion.
On Monday the 10th, the main conference took place in Grand Palais in Paris, with several ministers and other high-level participants from different organizations taking part. On Tuesday the 11th, the Finnish Embassy in Paris hosted a roundtable discussion, moderated by SITRA representatives, with Petri and Patrik attending. Prime Minister Petteri Orpo gave a speech here and Petri gave an introductory intervention. Here, it was also reminded that LLMs are often not the type of AI needed in industrial applications.
