Wie verändert Künstliche Intelligenz den Krieg? — mit Sven Weizenegger
Der vereitelte Drohnenanschlag am Flughafen Leipzig/Halle hat gezeigt, wie verwundbar kritische Infrastruktur in Deutschland sein kann. Eine mutmaßlich sprengstoffbeladene Drohne, nur wenige Meter von einem ukrainischen Antonow-Frachtflugzeug entfernt. Gleichzeitig verändert sich Kriegsführung in der Ukraine und im Nahen Osten rasant: Drohnen erkennen Ziele selbstständig, Algorithmen unterstützen…
<AI Professor Debunks Biggest Myths>
Alicia von Schenk, a young professor in Germany, is challenging common misconceptions about artificial intelligence. Born with an early talent, she began her education at the age of four and later earned a 1.0 grade in her school leaving exam at 15. She studied mathematics and economics at Frankfurt and Heidelberg universities, graduating with a summa cum laude degree and the highest distinction in economics, focusing on the impact of AI.
At just 30 years old, she became a professor on a lifelong tenure track, a position typically taken at nearly 44 years old in Germany.
Today, von Schenk heads the chair for "Economics of AI and Human Behavior" at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität in Würzburg, one of the few programs in Germany that explicitly focuses on the economic and behavioral effects of AI. Recognized as a national prodigy, von Schenk explains how she achieved such early success and her perspective on the current AI boom.
1. There is not just one AI
Despite the overwhelming hype, von Schenk clarifies that there is not a single AI. She describes AI as a collective term encompassing various technologies, ranging from simple statistical tools to complex neural networks in machine learning. "We call all of that AI," she says, emphasizing that this broad categorization can be too simplistic.
