[25th of May 2024, Hauptgebäude RWTH Aachen, Attendees: 400]
The 10th anniversary of TEDxRWTHAachen is just around the corner, and this time, it's themed “eXponential". At our event this year, everything revolves around the rapid developments in our modern world and how they progress exponentially. We truly have entered a disruptive era on many levels. Moore's law says that technology will double every two years, but it’s not just technology that’s at that level. Humanity also finds itself at a turning point in history, where it challenges and exceeds intelligence and creativity. At our 10th anniversary, we strive to create a positive notion that inspires people to look forward to and contribute to a healthy future for both planet and society. Our speaker lineup features the likes of YouTuber Daniel Jung, who will present his methods for more efficient learning using AI. Also, Dr. Julia Mann, Director of RWTH AI Center, will speak about the origin of biases in Artificial Intelligence. Other topics will include storage of nuclear waste and sustainability in architecture.
