An innovative project within the FNWI focuses on a few selected courses and strives for close collaboration between teaching teams, AI experts from the faculty and educational expertise from TLC Science. The target?

At a time when artificial intelligence (AI) is gaining traction, we are at a critical crossroads where technological advances are challenging our traditional views on warfare.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the news industry as we know it. At Nu.nl, the founder, Merien ten Houten, has made this vision a reality with the launch of 'The Illustrated Artificial Intelligence' (DGKI).
