Understanding AI, Rethinking Education: An Evening with Prof. Ute Schmid
Artificial intelligence is changing everyday life, the world of work, and schools. The online lecture Artificial Intelligence and Education – Learning with and despite AI on October 28, 2026, examines the opportunities and challenges of intelligent systems. Prof. Dr. Ute Schmid shows how AI can support learning processes without losing essential human skills.
Between Support and Loss of Competence
AI systems are already taking over routine tasks, assisting with complex tasks, and accompanying individual learning processes. At the same time, a central question arises: What happens when people delegate too many cognitive tasks to digital systems? The lecture explores how education and AI can interact in a way that maintains independent thinking, problem-solving, and sustainable learning.
Scientific Perspectives on Machine Learning
The speaker, Prof. Dr. Ute Schmid, is a professor for Cognitive Systems at the University of Bamberg. She has been researching human-like machine learning as well as interactive and explanatory learning methods for many years. As a member of the board and the executive committee of the Bavarian Research Institute for Digital Transformation, a member of the Bavarian AI Council, and an EurAI Fellow, she combines scientific expertise with current questions of digital transformation.
Digital Event Experience with vhs.wissen live
The lecture will take place as a livestream via Zoom and is part of the series vhs.wissen live. After registration, access data will be sent via email.
