Students at the different programs
Science Camp AI Lab

Under the motto "Research, Discover, and Marvel," 24 students took part in the Science Camp AI Lab during the Pentecost break and explored artificial intelligence. They learned the basics of AI, trained their own models, and discussed the opportunities and risks associated with technologies such as deepfakes.

Excursions to the KIT Karlsruhe South Campus and to Siemens provided behind-the-scenes insights into research and industry. Recreational activities rounded out the program.

How can chatbots be used sensibly in teaching?

Since the summer term, summer semester, teaching staff at KIT have been able to integrate AI-supported chatbots directly and easily into their ILIAS courses. These digital assistants open up new possibilities for individual support, interactive learning and reflective teaching scenarios. The areas of application are diverse - from targeted support in understanding complex content to promoting independent work. We have collected some ideas on how chatbots can enrich teaching.
