Yesterday’s conference on “Intelligence for an accelerated revolution” was delivered by Juan Manuel Corchado, director of the BISITE Research Group and president of the AIR Institute. The event, organised by Alumni USAL, was held at the Casino de Salamanca and was presented by Román Álvarez, professor at the University of Salamanca.

During the presentation, Corchado introduced the attendees to the current state of Artificial Intelligence and how it will allow to accelerate different fields beyond the merely technological ones.

The BISITE Group has more than 20 years of experience in the development of technological projects and AI is incorporated in many of its projects with the aim of processing a large volume of data and predicting the behaviour of machines or processes.

Corchado also presented some of the projects being developed at AIR Institute and the IoT Digital Innovation Hub, discussed the group’s participation in the DIGIS3 consortium and introduced the attendees to the BISITE Group’s technology-oriented training offer.
