  After today's #KDAI2026 lecture on "Basic Machine Learning 01", you will understand why most of what people say about AI in public debate is either wrong, confused, or missing the point — and you will have the tools to do better. If you've ever wondered how Netflix predicts your next binge-watch or how self-driving cars navigate, this is where it all starts. @fizise #AI #machinelearning #DeepLearning #transformers #llms #ontologies #historyofAI #lecture #Studen...

  🎷 Session 03 of #KDAI2026 - Basic Machine Learning II went live today. This week's transmission lands on 3 foundational algorithms: 🔭 k-Means Clustering — when there are no labels, let the data speak for itself 📉 Linear Regression — drawing the straightest line through the chaos 🌳 Decision Trees — asking the right questions in the right order. Because every good lecture deserves a soundtrack. 🎶 #AI #MachineLearning #AIeducation #LehreKIT #CowboyBebop @fiz_karlsruhe @fizise

  "Knowing what you don't know" - the keynote by Marieke van Erp from Digital Humanities Research Lab at the KNAW Humanities Cluster starts with an introduction to the Dutch East India Company (VOC) - and the question of who is not familiar with the VOC. However, it is about gaps, quality issues and other challenges of DH use cases #eswc2024 #semdh2024 @semdh #dh #semanticweb #knowledgegraphs #culturalheritage #voc

  🎓 Knowledge-driven AI is back — Summer Semester 2026. 12 lectures. One central question: What does it actually mean for a machine to understand? We'll journey from Aristotle's categories to knowledge graphs, from the first perceptron to today's foundation models — exploring how symbolic reasoning and modern machine learning meet, clash, and complement each other. #KDAI2026 #AI #MachineLearning #KnowledgeGraphs #SemanticWeb @fizise @KIT_Karlsruhe @fiz_karlsruhe #HigherEdu...

  🔍 Lecture 01 — The Art of Understanding Before we teach machines to reason, we should ask ourselves: what is knowledge, really? This opening lecture steps back from the algorithms and starts with first principles. It's the philosophical foundation the rest of the course is built on. Bring your curiosity. Leave your assumptions at the door. #KDAI2026 #AI #Epistemology #DataToKnowledge #SemanticWeb #KnowledgeRepresentation #MachineLearning #PhilosophyOfAI @fizise @fiz_karlsruhe

  At the #NFDI4Culture Community Plenary we demonstrated different ways of how to contribute to NFDI4Culture #KnowledgeGraph. Besides #LinkedOpenData and standardized metadata schemata, as e.g. LIDO, CIDOC-CRM, or OAI-PMH, we also offer lightweight CGIF (schema.org-based) and #WikiBase as supported formats. The example demonstrates how we integrate/map @FactGrid into the NFDI4C-KG index. @nfdi4culture @NFDI4Memory @tabea @epoz @sashabruns @sourisnumerique @heikef @jalle @fiz_karlsruhe
