The Austrian Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence (OFAI) is
delighted to announce its 2023 Winter/Spring Lecture Series.

The talks are intended to familiarize attendees with the latest
research developments in AI and related fields (particularly
computational linguistics and natural language processing), and to
forge new connections with those working in other areas.

Lectures will take place on Wednesdays at 18:30 Vienna time.  All
lectures will be held online via Zoom; in-person attendance at OFAI is
also possible for certain lectures.  Attendance is open to the public
and free of charge.  No advance registration is required.

For details on how to attend the individual talks, sign up to our
