On Monday, August 31, 2026, we marked the start of the academic year with a celebration. This year, we are focusing on a theme that resonates deeply with society: the role of the university in the age of AI.

♟️ What can we, as people and academics, do that AI can never accomplish?
♟️ How can we make a greater impact with the help of AI?
♟️ What do we want to teach our students about AI, and how?

Under the title “AI as a New Mechanical Brain: The University Checkmate?”, several speakers addressed these questions.
