Lecture Series: "AI – Opportunities and Risks of the Next Digital Revolution"

The University of Erfurt, the Thuringian State Parliament and the FunkeMedien Group invite you to the next public event in their joint lecture series on Monday, 4 December. The guest this time is Ronja Kemmer. She will talk about "AI – Opportunities and Risks of the Next Digital Revolution". The event starts at 6.30 pm in the State Parliament building.

Born in 1989, she has been a member of the Bundestag since 2014. Her political work focuses on digitalisation and the use of artificial intelligence (AI). She is now also contributing her experience as chairwoman of the Bundestag's "Artificial Intelligence" Enquete Commission to the parliament's digital committee. Since this year, she has also headed the new CDU expert commission "Humane Digitalisation".

Consciously utilising the benefits of IT and AI without allowing uncontrolled growth and misuse – this is how Kemmer's attitude towards new digital applications could be summarised. On the one hand, she is in favour of more digital offices to make it easier for citizens to deal with the authorities. She talks to young people about social networks such as Tiktok & Co. She says that the right course needs to be set for AI. Over-regulation must be avoided at all costs. She will be talking about this and more at the lecture series on 4 December.

Admission to the event is free. However, registration is requested at www.thueringer-allgemeine.de/ringvorlesung.
