Yesterday the “The Ágora Telefónica Conference” took place, in relation to the Telefónica Medialab Chair in Digital Innovation. An event in which Juan Manuel Corchado has participated with a presentation entitled “Artificial Intelligence, the gold of the XXI century”, in order to convey to the attendees the importance of this technology and how it is helping overcome the challenges the society is facing and will face in the future. 

The Chair arises from the close collaboration between Telefónica and the University of Salamanca, through MEDIALAB USAL and aims to serve as an impetus for the development of digital innovation projects and activities, applying technology to solve social problems and supporting research and technological talent in universities.

During his speech, the director of the BISITE Research Group of the University of Salamanca and President of the AIR Institute has been able to present the most interesting projects that we are developing in our group, as well as explaining the evolution of Artificial Intelligence and Convolutional Neural Networks.

Throughout these years we have had the opportunity to participate in the development of hundreds of projects both national and international, which apply Artificial Intelligence algorithms for different purposes, with platforms such as Deep Intelligence, that allow us to make a better evaluation of the data and make optimal decisions.
