We would like to invite you to a series of ten interactive and interdisciplinary lectures „Shanghai Artificial Intelligence”, which will focus on Embodied Artificial Intelligence. 

The aim of the lectures is to integrate science and humanities as well as to present the results of the latest research of recognized scientists into embodied artificial intelligence. It is also a large-scale educational experiment.

The lectures are open and will be delivered online and broadcast to fifteen universities in the world.

Shanghai AI lectures will be held every Thursday starting on 26 October 2017 from 9:30 to 11:00 in the building of the Department of Computer Science of AGH University of Science and Technology (21 Kawiory Street, building D-17, room 1.38).
