ELIAS

Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used as a tool for addressing challenges like climate change and the energy crisis. However, it also raises significant ethical and societal concerns. The EU-funded ELIAS project investigates how AI can help reduce computational costs, model the effects of policy decisions on society, and impact individuals. It will blend foundational research from academia with research geared towards industry applications. Building upon the success of the European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems (ELLIS), ELIAS further defines ELLIS’s excellence criteria and core principles. It also provides support to AI researchers and emerging talents in the field. In addition, the project will establish a science-entrepreneurship track to facilitate development of innovative AI solutions that contribute to sustainability.

CERTH is involved in research activities that focus on AI fairness and AI at the edge and in networking activities aiming to strengthen the European AI ecosystem.
