And to engage with them where they are (often) on the move: on TikTok. The KI-Campus of the Stifterverband and the German National Artificial Intelligence Competition are joining forces from October 15 with the new TikTok channel "@keepingupwith_ai". The joint initiative aims to reach even more young people with weekly AI updates.
By merging their existing TikTok channels @kicampus and @ki_kurzerklaert, the two initiatives aim to establish THE German-language TikTok channel for all things AI. Always with a focus on AI in our own lives, embedded in a "fresh" look: How can I learn better with AI, how does AI influence elections or how do I actually recognize fake news? "@keepingupwith_ai" provides low-threshold and easy-to-understand news, application examples and tools relating to AI for students and anyone interested in such questions.
Under the motto "rather AI than knocked out", the new TikTok channel will keep you fit for everyday AI - and enable you to have your say in the future, too. So don't miss out and follow now: tiktok.com/@keepingupwith_ai

About the German National Artificial Intelligence Competition (BWKI)
The annual BWKI aims to motivate students to implement their own ideas with the help of artificial intelligence. The competition was launched in 2018 at the Tübingen AI Center - a research facility of the University of Tübingen and the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems - and is a member of the nationwide student competitions working group. The Carl Zeiss Foundation has been the main sponsor of the BWKI since 2020. It also supports science communication projects for a young target group, including this TikTok channel.
