G7 leaders have agreed on Guiding Principles and a Code of Conduct on Artificial Intelligence. The UK is hosting the first global AI Safety Summit. However, not […]
In September 2023 I set out to conduct research in the Historical Archives of the European Union in Florence thanks to a UACES Microgrant.
In the wide world of academia, there is another specific moment which I equally learned to adopt and enjoy: conferencing and in particular international conferencing.
