KMI transfer day
As part of its application-oriented research work, the competence centre “Künstlich Menschlich Intelligent” (KMI/artificial human intelligent) supports companies in shaping the digital transformation as part of its application-oriented research work. The focus is on creating social, ecological, and economic benefits through the use of innovative digital technologies.
The KMI Transfer Day offers companies, associations and non-profit organizations involved in digital transformation and the introduction of AI a point of contact for gaining access to scientifically sound findings and results for the sustainable and humane design of work.
The work of the competence centre KMI is characterized by a broad interdisciplinary spectrum. Scientists from the KMI project research and develop solutions for the digital design of sustainable and resilient working and learning spaces in a constant and close exchange with practice partners.
The KMI Competence Center is offering the following events for Data Week in Leipzig:
- Focus on AI as a Tool: KMI Tool Suite
- Focus on Processes: Introduction to AI-supported Process Automation
- Focus on Stability: Hands-on Resilience
- Focus on Review and Outlook: AI Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
- Focus on Organizational Development: Mastering the Digital Transformation
- Focus on Participation: Involving Employees in Change Processes
KMI Tool Suite: Open Source Tools for Digital Transformation
This workshop offers a practice-oriented learning space for discovering and testing selected open source tools. These tools can support companies in their digital transformation. Using real-world use cases, participants learn how the tools can be used in their own projects—from process optimization to automation and decision support. Solutions for practical challenges will be developed through collaborative work.
Introduction to AI-supported Process Automation: Practical application with agent-based workflows
This workshop offers an introduction to AI-supported, agent-based workflows. It consists of a demonstration of the development of simple automated processes using modern build environments for AI agents. A compact sample project is used to illustrate the process of creating a workflow and to present the basic building blocks of such systems and the combination of components.
Hands-on Resilience: Building Blocks for Stable Structures and Strong Teams
Resilience enables organizations to overcome unforeseen challenges and adapt to change proactively and flexibly. A holistic resilience strategy strengthens structures, processes, and, above all, the people who support these structures. This creates stability and makes organizations more innovative, healthier, and significantly more future-proof. As part of this workshop, participants experience resilience as a success factor in a hands-on board game.
AI Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
The world of AI seems to be moving at breakneck speed. In this interactive lecture, we take a scientific look and draw on personal experience to examine how AI has developed over the last five years and how profound the changes actually are. Which expectations and fears have been realized, and which technologies are robust enough for productive use today? Where are the limits, and how do the priorities of research and industry differ? Instead of just asking what AI can do, we focus on what people need. We open up a philosophical space and discuss how AI systems must be designed to support a good life and what visions of the future are already shaping our actions today. Together, we want to develop a realistic and human-centered perspective on AI. A lecture to think about and discuss.
Mastering the Digital Transformation – Identifying Barriers and Managing Organizational Change
With digitalization, organizations in a dynamic technological environment must adapt their business models and/or value creation processes. This requires a transformation within organizations, which should be actively shaped through change management. This workshop will discuss the barriers to digital transformation on the one hand and the pitfalls and enabling factors of holistic, human-centered change management on the other. The aim of the workshop is to gain a better understanding of how complex digital change processes can be designed in a sustainable manner and implemented in practice.
Involving Employees in Change Processes – from Idea to Implementation
The ROOTS subproject develops methods and concepts that support NPOs in value-oriented, sustainable transformation. Involving employees supports such challenging processes by harnessing potential and reducing skepticism. In the first part of the workshop, a practical example will be used to illustrate how employee participation can be successful. In the second part, the participation platform developed in the ROOTS subproject, which enables organizations and associations to participate digitally internally, will be presented. Subsequently, a digitally supported and participatory involvement process will be jointly designed.
