NE Deep Fakes

Artificial intelligence (AI) offers many opportunities such as improved healthcare, more efficient energy consumption and more durable products.

However, AI also comes with new risks. “Deepfakes” is an important buzzword here. It is reminiscent of “fake news”: deliberately false text messages in social networks to distort public opinion.

“Deepfakes”, on the other hand, refer to deceptively real-looking video and audio manipulations that can only be produced using AI. The risks and
The risks and challenges posed by deepfakes are considerable – not only for the media landscape, but also for companies and individuals. At the same time, however, AI also provides the tools to reliably expose deepfakes.

At a time when sustainable development has become one of the most important issues of our time, the concept of the Circular Economy (CE) is seen as a promising response to the challenges of traditional linear economic models (“take-make-waste”) and as a key strategy for addressing pressing environmental problems and geopolitical tensions. Digital technologies are seen as paving the way for a circular economic model.
Our event “Pathways to the Circular Economy” serves as a platform to highlight and discuss the important synergies between sustainability and digital transformation. A variety of exciting use cases in which the integration of digital technologies is changing entrepreneurial action and enabling and supporting the transition to a CE paradigm will be highlighted and discussed.

What to expect:
– Exciting Keynotes – Learn use cases and strategies that highlight how companies are addressing the shift to a circular economic model.
– Interactive Panel – Follow and shape the discussion with invited experts.
– Networking opportunity – Make new contacts with other attendees, companies, policy makers and visionaries over drinks and finger food.

Networking Evening Generative AI #2 “ChatGPT and the Future of Creative Texting”

Flourishing imagination and fantasy characterize the work of the writing professions. Writers, book authors, journalists, and copywriters need creativity. ChatGPT is now challenging this assumption. Therefore, we ask: What are the conditions for the creative writing process? What talent is essential for a professional writer? First, we shed light on the importance of inspiration and discipline to the craft of creative writing.

Then we take a look at the history of the development of automated text production, from the beginnings of mechanical typewriters to the recent advances of artificial intelligence and machine texting. How has technology changed the way text is produced over time? What are the implications for the quality and volume of content produced?

Finally, we come to the issue of authorship and copyright. After all, the production of texts with AI has legal consequences: Who is the author of books written with AI? How do authors and writers preserve their rights when machine-generated texts process their works?

We bring together experts from the fields of literature, media history, and law to better understand the implications of ChatGPT and similar technologies for the future of creative textual work.

Networking Evening Generative AI #1 “Cheating for the Clever? From VroniPlag to ChatGPT”

ChatGPT is keeping the world on its toes. Even schools and universities are catching up with the hype surrounding the mysterious voice assistant. Suspicions of cheating and plagiarism are piling up. The capabilities of this voice machine are putting the understanding of service delivery in education to the test.

As of now, how is ChatGPT changing the tradition of school and university testing? How will principals and deans react? How will ChatGPT shape our understanding of education?

We track down these questions. First, we ask the German expert on plagiarism to take the podium. Then we ask those who want to deal with ChatGPT (students) – or have to (teachers and professors).
