Manually counting stock: that's really not feasible at high turnover rates. Given the current tight labor market, it is also difficult to free up employees for this purpose. MOOS is working on a more cost-effective innovative alternative: sensors made of special paper that transmit data wirelessly and which, with the help of AI, make it possible to keep track of inventory remotely and in real time.
Leveraging exceptional AI talent is important to strengthen the national knowledge and training base in the field of AI. We are therefore pleased to announce the second and third awards in the AiNed Fellowship grants Programme to Dr. Sonja de Zwarte and Dr. Charlotte Frenkel. We warmly congratulate them on this award! We look forward to their contribution to AI research in the Netherlands.
The AiNed Foundation board is pleased to welcome Saskia Vlaar as a new board member. She joins the board with a focus area of People and Skills, such as the Programme Learning communities, effective June 15, 2023.
Dataville is not an existing village. It is an AI solution developed by Lucidminds that allows organizations and companies to gain valuable insights from (potentially) sensitive data sets, without actually accessing that data. In short: no data sharing, but insights. And all that with great attention to control and privacy. A solution, therefore, that can eliminate many concerns.
Old-fashioned sails on modern ocean-going vessels? That's not exactly practical. Fortunately, there is a modern alternative to sailcloth: turbo sails. Based on that principle, eConowind, a company in Groningen/Zeewolde, developed the so-called VentoFoils. Seagoing ships using that solution are already saving quite a bit of fuel. And with the help of AI, even greater savings are possible.
THAT is the goal of the Netherlands AI Coalition and AiNed Foundation. During a strategic session during the NL AI Congress we will take you through this shared vision and ambition, and the steps we are taking to achieve this goal. Will you be there on April 12, 2023 in Utrecht?
