an international summit in Paris from February 6 to 11

Paris is preparing to host the Summit for Action on Artificial Intelligence. A week which, from the Grand Palais to Station F, via the École Polytechnique and the National Library, should bring together political representatives, scientists and entrepreneurs around the challenges of AI.

The Summit itself will be held on February 10 and 11 at the Grand Palais. Government representatives, business leaders and representatives of civil society will take part in thematic conferences and round tables. The next day, the heads of state and government will debate on site the joint actions to be taken.

This day of February 11 will also see Station F host a “Business Day” to which professionals will be invited. Supported by Bpifrance, France Digitale, Numeum, Station F, the event is intended to address the democratic, environmental, technological, informational and even security issues of artificial intelligence.

This will close a week dedicated to AI which began on February 6 and 7 via the scientific part of the event. International experts and several Nobel Prize winners are expected on the campus of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris for two days of conferences called “AI, Science and Society”.

The weekend of February 8 and 9 will be dedicated to cultural meetings, focused on creators and questions concerning copyright and artist remuneration. These meetings will be held on Saturday at the François Mitterrand Library, then the next day at the Conciergerie, which will offer artistic installations and artist master classes.

As FashionNetwork.com pointed out, in just a few months, AI has found its way into all areas of the clothing market, from the creation stage to production and sales management tools. A recent study carried out by Salesforce pointed out that artificial intelligence would have influenced end-of-year sales more than ever, the share of Internet users using AI chatbots on sales portals having increased by 42% in one year.
