An Interdisciplinary Center Dedicated to AI and Data Science, for the Benefit of Science, the Economy, and Society

 

Exponential growth in the volume of data and advances in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have created a new paradigm for scientific methods and are transforming all sectors of the economy. 

France is currently in need of world-class research that is both ethical and effective, as well as training and an innovative ecosystem in the field of AI and Data Science. This issue is crucial in developing technologies related to AI in France, especially given the institutions it is up against in the English-speaking world and Asia. If France is to be endowed with the means to meet the growing needs of companies and society and take up these major scientific challenges, then the time has come for companies and academic institutions to band together for the sake of progress.
