June 2024 Summer School Call for Submission  The Humanities and Social Sciences Meet  Artificial Intelligence Artificial Intelligence has the potential to revolutionize research, but it is still up to us to become the masters of AI and not its slaves. Learn how to use AI critically and how to integrate it in ways that expand your fields, with novel research questions, conjectures and basis for justifications.  We are delighted to invite you to submit an application for the DHSS Hub second summer school. Join us for three days of hands-on workshops with leading researchers, learn how to use a variety of AI tools for a range of purposes, as well as machine learning methods.  The summer school will take place on 9th-11th September. On the 8th September, the DHSS Hub Conference on AI in the humanities and social sciences will take place.
