The Development Status, Prospects, and Challenges of AI in Europe Europe has unique strengths in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), but it also faces intense competition from the U.S. and China. Below is an analysis of Europe's current AI landscape, future prospects, and key challenges. #Siemens #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #CostOptimization #Sustainability #GreenAI #MLOps #DigitalTransformation #Industrie40

The 2025 AI Index Report from Stanford University HAI provides a comprehensive look at how artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries, investment, and innovation. Key findings include: - Major performance gains across leading AI benchmarks such as MMMU, GPQA, and SWE-bench. - Widespread adoption, with 78% of organizations now integrating AI into their operations. - U.S. private AI investment reaching $109.1 billion in 2024. - Rapid advancements in responsible AI, alongside growing needs for governance and transparency. We see these trends reflected in the way businesses are rethinking how they source, integrate, and optimize technology. Our work at Partsol continues to focus on helping organizations translate emerging AI capabilities into practical, scalable solutions that drive real outcomes. #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #TechnologyTrends #DigitalTransformation #Innovation #FutureOfWork #TechStrategy #AIAdoption #Partsol #AIIndex

From a useful tool to a true partner: Evonik is taking the next step in artificial intelligence. The AIChemBuddy provides concrete support to researchers in their laboratory work. Powered by relevant data, measurements, and experimental results, the AIChemBuddy can offer valuable insights for the next steps and significantly accelerate development processes. Since the system only uses relevant data, its energy consumption is also very low. Read in ELEMENTS how effectively AI helps researchers. You can also learn more about this topic at the "K" trade fair in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Helping our researchers at Evonik to do more with less – that's why I'm excited about this feature on AIChemBuddy in action! The article below shows how Bayesian Optimization is making day-to-day lab work smarter and more efficient. I am happy that our open-source library BoFire (https://lnkd.in/d25WTYZB) – which is also featured in the article – is the engine driving AIChemBuddy, enabling researchers to leverage advanced optimization without needing to code. A big shout-out to Dr. Sabine Kanbach, Thomas Asche and Jakob Zeitler, who share their perspectives in the article, and to Karsten Lemm for authoring this great piece! This is a great example of how AI and open-source tools can accelerate innovation and empower scientists to focus on what matters most: discovery. 👉 Check out the article here: https://lnkd.in/eZi_h39Z #BoFire #AIChemBuddy

🤬 NO MORE “RULE OF THUMB" ... (quote: myself) ... when it comes to baking cake, and molecules? Karsten Lemm wrote a really well balanced article about the growth and impact of Active Learning / Bayesian Optimization at Evonik, and by extension also at Bayer, BASF, Boehringer Ingelheim and more. 💡 What's particular interesting here is: 1️⃣ The Open Source strategy, since “The intelligence ultimately comes from the data we use to train the models. This means that everything that generates value for us remains within Evonik” 2️⃣ The internal building that follows from that, since "external software companies demanded a revenue share or access to sensitive data", which doesn't make sense for many. Johannes P. Dürholt and the AIChemBuddy team have laid a quite solid foundation it seems (and hired great people like Jim Boelrijk, before I was able to ...) ⚡️Action Steps: 1) Read the article attached, or linked here: https://lnkd.in/ey-rFT8s 2) Sign up to the 2025 Active Learning Symposium in November to hear the latest on all the opportunities, challenges and pitfalls: https://lnkd.in/eZ92FAkx Aleksander Molak Richard Hahn Warren Powell Peter Frazier Javier González Jordan Penn Johannes P.

𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐈𝐍 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 — 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐝𝐚’𝐬 𝐋𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐀𝐈 𝐆𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐬 Today marks the start of ALL IN, Canada’s largest AI gathering, bringing together more than 6,000 leaders, researchers, and investors under one roof. Governance, responsible AI, and the strategic role AI plays in shaping the economy are among the key themes of this important event. Coming from 20+ years in systems infrastructure, I believe resilient AI infrastructure will be the backbone of trustworthy and scalable AI adoption. The ALL IN event is a clear signal of where the AI ecosystem is moving — not only in Canada, but globally. #AI #ALLIN2025 #ArtificialIntelligence #AIInfrastructure #ResponsibleAI #CanadaAI #DigitalTransformation #FutureOfWork
