For the past few months, I have been leading the R3IA (Regional Research Network in AI) of the Nouvelle Aquitaine Region. We proposed to the network to organize a meeting and exchanges between R3IA and R3MOB (the R3 about mobility). Indeed, many questions (and proposed solutions) on mobilities involve adding AI to decision-making. It was an opportunity to discuss, question, and listen.
This event was organized on the sidelines of Robocup 2023, in a small room at the Bordeaux convention center (the entire convention center was occupied by Robocup). Away from the hustle and bustle of the robots on the ground floor.
(Anecdote) The schedule had to be adapted at the last minute (the Minister of Higher Education came to visit the exhibition).
The program was as follows (thanks to everyone, it was rich and full of promises)!
