Last week, Suze attended the AI for Science Forum, a gathering of incredible minds from across disciplines, each sharing perspectives on how AI is transforming research and impacting society. Organised by Google DeepMind and The Royal Society, the event brought together invited guests from across all segments of the research community to share their experiences and expertise, while also giving opportunities for attendees to meaningfully discuss how we can best wrangle this novel technology to increase the impact and reach of research with the resources currently at our disposal. Here's a reflection on the day's proceedings.
