KI2026 is the 49th German Conference on Artificial Intelligence organized in cooperation with the Fachbereich Künstliche Intelligenz der Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI-SIG AI). The German AI Conference was launched more than 50 years ago with the first GI-SIG AI meeting in 1975.
The DFKI Co-Coordinators and Local Chairs are Dr. Sirko Straube, Robotics Innovation Center and Dr. Serge Autexier, Cyber-Physical Systems.
The DFKI site in Bremen focuses on topics such as human-machine cooperation, space and underwater robotics, and secure embedded systems. Here, developments in cyber-physical systems, verification of embedded systems, aerospace, assistance and rehabilitation systems, adaptive production, and agricultural robotics are being advanced in collaboration with innovative and high-performance companies.
DFKI combines scientific excellence and commercially-oriented value creation with social awareness and is recognized as a major "Center of Excellence" by the international scientific community. In the field of artificial intelligence, DFKI has focused on the goal of human-centric AI for more than 35 years. Research is committed to essential, future-oriented areas of application and socially relevant topics. Currently, with a staff of about 1,560 employees from more than 76 countries, DFKI is developing the innovative software technologies of tomorrow.
