We had an extremely Icelandic AI Run this week. We took off from Reykjavik University in decent spring weather (a bit windy, but hats off and sunglasses on) but had to brave some crazy wind and heavy rain on our way back! Refreshing lunchtime for sure 💨

We also had some great conversations with new friends joining and all sorts of new collaborations now in the works 👏

Will spring be here for real for our May run? Do you dare join and find out??

A quick reminder that our April AI Run/Walk is tomorrow 👟

Step away from the computer for a bit and join us for a nice lunchtime stroll or jog - whatever your preferred pace - and some great conversations about AI and digital transformation.

See you at Sólin at Reykjavik University tomorrow at 11:15!

Last week we collaborated with Reykjavik University’s Open University and CADIA - Center for Analysis and Design of Intelligent Agents for the conference AI & Society: You, Data, and Sovereign Decision-Making 🙌

The main topic of the conference (as the name suggest) was how AI is already shaping our society, with talks and panels touching for example on autonomy at both the individual and societal level, why data sovereignty matters more than ever and how AI is affecting our day to day lives and the way our brains work.

We at EDIH-IS used the opportunity to introduce our newly established Women in AI working group which will be kicking of some exciting activities in the coming weeks. We encourage all those who are interested in getting involved to join our mailing list.

We would like to thank our conference partners and all participants - speakers and attendees - for a great day and we look forward to keeping the conversation going around responsible and inclusive AI development.

We would like to emphasise that this conversation is for everyone. All genders are welcome to join the discussion, contribute their viewpoints, and help shape the future of AI ✨
