Welcome to the Institute for Artificial Intelligence!

The Institute for Artificial Intelligence (IAI) is directed by Prof. Michael Beetz.

As a research institute, we conduct basic scientific research in the field of cognition-enabled robotics for everyday activities.

As part of the Faculty of Computer Science, we have a project-based teaching approach. Our hands-on projects in teaching include SuTuRoProjekt: SUTURO - sudo tidy-up-my-room, IntEL4CoRo and the annual EASE Fall School.

The IAI is member of the Center for Computing and Communication Technologies (TZI) as well as the high-profile area Minds, Media and Machines (MMM) at the University of Bremen.

Discussion forum 'Art or Artificial? How AI composes'

IAI member Dr. rer. nat. Daniel Nyga was invited to a discussion forum with the title 'Art or Artificial? How AI composes' in the Haus der Wissenschaft, Bremen.

Together with Amke Block and Thorsten Plath, the plenum discussed the interesting topic of AI-music. What is the opinion of artists, the music industry and music science about it? Is it still art or is creativity a feature solely belonging to human beings? What can AI deliver in the music domain what the human can't - and the other way around? The event has been moderated by Maike Evers-Schmidt.
