Rhineland-Palatinate is the cradle of artificial intelligence in Germany and the city of Kaiserslautern is nowadays the place to be for: science, technical applications and use cases related to AI. With science institutes and universities, excellent in research and development, and also highly recognized in fostering economic innovation, Rhineland-Palatinate and Kaiserslautern offer their competences for technological partnership in Europe and the world. We combine ethical responsibility with technological excellence. It was a pleasure to welcome you at the conference “TRUSTinAI” which took a glance at the chances and the needs a responsible AI can develop for the science community and our societies.

The TRUSTinAI conference took place on November 26, 2020 as a virtual event. More than 760 participants attended the live lectures and sessions, which were streamed worldwide from the AI nucleus Kaiserslautern/Germany. Five parallel workshops on central AI topics invited participants to participate in virtual conference rooms – all in English, all online!

Venue Kaiserslautern

an AI nucleus in Europe

Kaiserslautern - Once home to globally operating industrial companies, the technical competence in Kaiserslautern gave rise to engineering schools such as the University of Applied Sciences and the Technical University, from which relevant top research institutions emerged. Today, the city in south-west Rhineland-Palatinate is home to world-renowned, excellent AI and IT education and research, international companies and ambitious high-tech spin-offs. An AI nucleus for Europe and worldwide with a unique dynamic in science and transfer and thus the logic place to stream the TRUSTinAI conference 2020 from.
