A blog on Innovation and Artificial Intelligence
AI startups are not just software startups
AI startups are not like software startups. We need to understand the specifics of this technology and the associated business models to find the most promising applications – as founders, investors and business leaders.
EU Rules on AI – some thoughts
The European Comission has presented their proposal on AI regulation last month. It is the first of its kind. I think there is no question that Europe has to find its own way to deal with AI. Trustworthy and human centric AI is a very good approach without question. But the devil is in the details..
The decade of Artificial Intelligence
We are already in the middle of the decade of artificial intelligence (AI) and yet this unstoppable technological achievement is often viewed and discussed with skepticism. Is this development really so different from the innovations of the last 50 years that have become an integral part of our current lives and society? I will explains why it is so important, especially for Europe, to understand AI and especially machine learning (ML), and actively promote its use.
AI and Dogs
Today, a slightly different topic: AI and dogs (or pets, for that matter). As an owner of a dog for a good 10 years, I am always looking for interesting ways to use AI for our dog (and his owner). And there is more than you might think : AI can help you understand your dog’s emotions and AI can help train your dog.

GPAI is an international and multistakeholder initiative to guide the responsible development and use of AI, grounded in human rights, inclusion, diversity, innovation, and economic growth.
Corona and AI. Why companies should invest in AI now.

Review of German AI Strategy
I was invited by the German government again to participate in the review of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) strategy for Germany.
Getting value from AI investments
More than 90% of the executives worldwide expect to get some value from AI. But 65% report that they are not yet seeing value from the AI investments they have made in recent years. What are the lessons learned from those organisations that do see value from there AI Investments:
News not Noise #19
After a few month break New not Noise is back.
Let’s start with a few interesting articles and studies which have been published on Microsoft’s AI activities in the last few month
AI Adoption
Nearly 50% of businesses in Germany believe AI is not relevant for them.
And there is another worrying fact. The danger of losing market share to competitors with (more effective) use of AI is described by only 12% of respondents as very large, 19% as large and 36% as medium-sized. It seems that many companies have not yet fully reflected the opportunities offered by AI – including those of their competitors.
