Künstliche Intelligenz: Deutschlands jüngste KI-Professorin räumt mit den größten Mythen auf
Mit gerade mal 30 Jahren hat Alicia von Schenk den Lehrstuhl für „Economics of AI“ an der Uni Würzburg gegründet. Sie rät hinter den aktuellen Hype um die Technologie zu schauen.
Alicia von Schenk, a young German AI professor, is challenging the biggest misconceptions surrounding artificial intelligence. Born with a natural aptitude, von Schenk began her education at the age of four and earned a 1.0 Abitur at fifteen. She went on to study mathematics and economics in Frankfurt and Heidelberg, eventually obtaining a doctorate in philosophy with a focus on AI's impact, graduating with top honors.
Remarkably, she became a professor at the age of 30, a rare occurrence in Germany where the average entry age is nearly 44.
Currently, von Schenk directs the Chair of "Economics of AI and Human Behavior" at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität in Würzburg. This position is one of the few in Germany specifically dedicated to understanding AI's economic and behavioral impacts. Von Schenk, one of Germany's youngest professors, has earned a reputation as a prodigy. However, her success is not as straightforward as it may seem. How did von Schenk achieve such early and significant achievements? And how does she perceive the current AI boom?
