HPC Serbia, together with the EuroCC4SEE national competence centers from Türkiye, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, is hosting an exciting online seminar series called 5 Beats of Intelligence: AI Meets Diverse Domains. In this series, each country will host a dedicated session exploring how Artificial Intelligence intersects with a different scientific or industrial domain. The seminars are designed to share knowledge, inspire collaboration, and engage both academic and applied research communities in the EuroHPC ecosystem.
This series welcomes researchers and students focused on AI applications, HPC professionals, AI developers, industry partners seeking insights into applied AI, and EuroHPC and NCC community members throughout Europe.
