It is not a matter of building up many small AI centers, each of which is a regional champion. To play a leading role on a global scale, we need to focus.<\/p>\n<p>We need to move away from the watering can principle, join forces and coordinate closely at the European level. This is the only way we can keep up with nations like the USA and China, which for their part are striving for the leading role in AI. AI does not primarily require computers, but brains and data.<\/p>\n<p>We need at least 40 additional professorships for AI to train bright minds in this country - and then we must succeed in ensuring that they also translate their knowledge into practice here and do not take the fastest route abroad.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI is the most important driver of digitization.
