AIxIA: AI Conference
Artificial Intelligence meets Intelligence Artificielle
Thank you for participating in the first French-German conference on the application of artificial intelligence!
On October 1 & 2, 2019 over 300 participants from France, Germany and the world met in Karlsruhe to discuss the application of Artificial Intelligence. The conference focused on real existing AI applications and addressed the needs of companies. In the form of concrete use cases, panel discussions and workshops the participants gained inspiration on how to apply AI for their business.
We thank our partners and sponsors!

TOPICS
Check out our various Panel sessions on the application of AI – how does artificial intelligence influence our daily (working) life? Concrete Use Cases from practitioners will open up this “black box” of potential.
AI & Technologies
AI technology has led to major improvements in human-like perception of machines. Natural language processing and image recognition are reliably used in commercial applications today and only the beginning of possibilities and methods businesses can apply.
AI & Business
AI can provide a competitive advantage in most industries. The possible applications penetrate any business areas. From “intelligent” chatbots to predictive analytics, AI is on the advance. Hence, the impact of AI on Businesses will be transformative. What will future professions look like and how can we leverage the most of humans and AI working together?
AI & Ethics
With great power comes great responsibility. AI technology has challenged the status quo of humans as decision maker. What is the best (European) way to tackle those future-oriented decisions that need to be made for a “humane” symbiosis of AI and Humans?
AI industry solutions: Production
Digitalization of production systems has enabled the massive gathering of data. AI can make meaningful use of this data. From predicting malfunctions of machines and finding root causes to new methods in quality assurance, there is great potential. Close human-robot collaboration is on the advance. AI can reinforce the collaboration by “humanizing” the robot behaviour. To what extent is this already reality in production?
AI industry solutions: Mobility
What modes of transport will we use in the future? AI has the prospect to play a major role and help solve current mobility problems. Check out the latest developments presented in this session.
AI industry solutions: Retail/E-Commerce
Possible applications of AI encompass the entire product and service cycle in Retail. From supply chain planning (85%) and demand forecasting (85%), to customer intelligence (79%), AI will revolutionize retail. — IBM, 2019
