New French Push for AI Research

This new Chair, funded by Google France, aims to support the training of a new generation of talents in artificial intelligence in terms of training, research, and international outreach. The new Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Visual Computing Master's program of École Polytechnique, offered in partnership with Inria, ENSTA ParisTech, and Télécom ParisTech, will benefit from support as it welcomes its first class in September 2018. Google France will offer students opportunities in its research internship programs. AI awareness seminars in ethics and law, as well as roundtables and workshops, will also be conducted to allow students to succeed in the professional world and in scientific research in the field of AI. An invitation program for world-renowned professors will also be funded by the Chair to support these research activities and to enrich the academic offer of the Artificial Intelligence and the Advanced Visual Computing Master's program.
