Human Service Week 2024

Artificial Intelligence in Human Services

April 3rd/4th and April 24th/25th 2024 from 14.00 – 18.00 CEST (German summertime) in Zoom

The technological break-through in artificial intelligence is a game changer in many fields of human society. Stephan Hawking is quoted as “The rise of powerful AI will be either the best, or the worst thing, ever to happen to humanity. We do not yet know which”.

We want to discuss the chances and challenges of artificial intelligence for Human Services. How will it affect the adressees of social services? What are the chances for the organization of Human Services? How will the professions change?

We will be working in an online format with teachers and students from different countries. We will hear keynotes from university teachers and we will work in internationally mixed workgroups to prepare a presentation.

We are happy to see guests and participants from all over the world!

ECTS provided when participating in workgroups: 5 ECTS.

You can participate as a student from the preparatory group. Please address the professors of your university.

You can participate as a student from all over the world (free mover). You find the possibility to sign in starting March 1st 2024.
