Artificial intelligence for better opportunities and scientific progress towards trustworthy and human-centric digital environment

Descripción del proyecto

Abordar los retos de la inteligencia artificial con un innovador programa de premios

En el amplio panorama de la inteligencia artificial (IA o AI, por sus siglas en inglés) y la robótica, la promesa de mejorar el nivel de vida, aumentar la seguridad de la movilidad y mejorar la asistencia sanitaria se ve obstaculizada por importantes retos. Los problemas de confianza y fiabilidad impiden la adopción generalizada de estas tecnologías transformadoras. En este contexto, el proyecto AI-BOOST, financiado con fondos europeos, surge como una respuesta estratégica para establecer la confianza, la fiabilidad y la colaboración, al aprovechar todo el potencial de la IA y la robótica en los diversos sectores europeos. En concreto, el equipo del proyecto pondrá en marcha un programa de premios abiertos para atraer a los mejores equipos de investigación, fomentar el talento emergente y atraer la inversión privada. Situado como punto de referencia para la comunidad europea de la IA, AI-BOOST está llamado a realzar la competitividad de Europa en el campo de la IA.

Objetivo

Artificial Intelligence and Robotics brings an immense potential across many sectors for improved standards of living, safer mobility, better healthcare, new jobs, or the personalization of public services. However, it presents huge challenges, especially regarding trust and performance reliability, that prevents the wide uptake of these technologies.
There is an urgent need to establish a participatory methodology that can bring together industry, academia, and society to make noteworthy scientific advancements in key AI domains and to guarantee the widespread adoption of these advancements to enhance Europe's competitiveness.
Open innovation competitions have been proven to be successful in promoting innovation, attracting new talent, and securing capital in various fields. However, the main problems with the European open innovation landscape include a) High Fragmentation: initiatives and organizations operating independently; b) Isolated initiatives: lack of collaboration between stakeholders; c) Lack of sustainable funding models for open innovation: challenge for the long-term viability of these initiatives and the results uptake; c) Lack of a sound impact measurement methodology: challenge to demonstrate the value of these initiatives to stakeholders.
The goal of the AIBOOST project is to establish a prominent open challenge prize program that will serve as a benchmark for the European artificial intelligence (AI) community aimed at achieving these impacts: I1) Enabling scientific breakthrough in major AI areas by attracting the best research teams to join forces.; I2) Contributing to the effort of unlocking AI, robotics and data innovations uptake across several sectors and applications through collaboration and co-creation.; I3) Boosting AI talent uptake by EU industry engaging in the competitions students and new rising starts, I4) Increasing private investment in AI research providing attractive and sound approaches.
