Session Abstract:
As artificial intelligence moves from pages of science textbooks and into the core fabric of modern society, higher education and research institutions find themselves at the crossroads of innovation. From industries like healthcare to autonomous machines, today's research landscape and workforce demands hands-on AI skills. Entrusted to nurture the next generation, universities must be AI-ready.
The University of Florida recently launched a $70 million AI partnership with NVIDIA, taking the first step towards ensuring equitable access to bringing AI to students and faculty from across campus and the state. Join experts from NVIDIA, University of Florida, and Florida Congressman (TBD) in a panel discussion that will focus on defining an AI university, laying out a blueprint, and its necessity for a better world.
Extended Abstract:
With NVIDIA's guidance, the University of Florida built a roadmap that encompasses computational excellence, helps recruit and retain top talent, establishes public-private partnerships, and creates an accessible infrastructure for students and faculty to enable breakthroughs.
