Great Lakes AI Week Wraps up at UToledo With Employers, Researchers and Students
The University of Toledo hosted the Nov. 12 portion of Great Lakes AI Week, bringing leaders from major regional employers to campus for a day focused on practical, responsible uses of AI.
UToledo President James Holloway then welcomed attendees to campus for the main stage programming.
UToledo researchers were part of the lineup. From right, Dr. Grace Bochenek, vice president for research and innovation, and Dr. Ahmad Javaid, interim chair and associate professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, spoke about A3GENT, a project that uses AI to generate adaptive adversaries for Army vehicle training. They were joined by Darren Moore, president of Ukrainian Defense Drones, who helped bring the company's first U.S. assembly and manufacturing center to Holland, Ohio, a multimillion-dollar investment creating at least 300 new jobs.
The day began with the Women in AI and Business Breakfast in the Thompson Student Union, where women shaping the future of AI shared personal stories.
Produced by the Enterprise Technology Association, the three-day event ran Nov. 10-12 and was split between Bowling Green State University and UToledo.
