Prof. Dr. Ulrich Walter

Understanding AI – What It Can Do and Where It Fails AI is like electricity: those who don't understand it are afraid of it, but for everyone else, it makes life easier. This is why AI will profoundly change our world in the long term. But how does it actually work? What can it really do – and where does it reach its limits? The talk provides a comprehensible introduction to the basics of modern AI, using illustrative examples to demonstrate both its potential and its limitations. Science astronaut Prof. Walter is an expert in AI and robotics at the Technical University of Excellence in Munich. As a member of the Bavarian Ethics Council, he advises the Bavarian government on technical innovation issues, particularly examining the social and ethical implications of AI.

AI in Companies – Understanding and Implementing It Correctly According to a survey, the primary hurdles to using AI in companies are a lack of understanding of AI and its applications, as well as concerns about the security of their own company data. This presentation aims to change precisely that. Scientific astronaut Prof. Walter is an expert in AI and robotics at the Technical University of Excellence in Munich. He advises companies on the AI transformation of their processes. As a member of the Bavarian Ethics Council, he also critically examines the social and ethical issues surrounding AI.

From NewSpace to AI – What lies ahead? We live in times of transformation. Technical innovations are changing our lives at an increasing speed. How will robotics and AI influence our society? When and how will space tourism change our view of the world? Science astronaut Prof. Walter is an expert in AI and robotics at the Technical University of Excellence in Munich.
