Artificial intelligence is one of the most discussed issues of our time. It offers many opportunities in research and in daily office tasks and is therefore an important core research area for TUD with exciting prospects.

TU Dresden conducts extensive research into the application of artificial intelligence and actively incorporates the topic of AI into its teaching. In addition, various competence centers advise employees and students on how they can tap into the potential of AI for their work.

TU Dresden recognizes the potential, but also the challenges that AI-supported text generation programs such as ChatGPT come with. It promotes a discussion on important aspects and the usage of such programs, especially in a didactic context, but also with regard to the legal framework. 

This page and the linked subordinate pages offer a compilation of information on the topic of AI and provide basic recommendations for the use of AI at TU Dresden.

Use of AI at the TUD

Especially after the prominent rise of ChatGPT, the question often arises as to how such technology can be used safely and efficiently in the workplace and in academia. TU Dresden's usage guidelines provide an  orientation for the use of generative AI in research, teaching and administration. To the website Use of AI at TU Dresden

Core research areas on AI at the TUD

Interdisciplinary work in the field of AI is a priority at TU Dresden. In the successfully established, national AI Competence Center ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig, TU Dresden bundles expertise from various departments. Research on AI is also being conducted in many other areas. To the website Core research areas on AI at TUD

Didactic use of AI at the TUD

AI can support teaching in many different ways: In the preparation of teaching materials, as a learning tool or as a teaching subject. The main point of contact in the process of introducing and using AI tools in teaching is ZiLL. It collects best practices on AI in teaching and learning and offers helpful tips and tricks for teachers and students. To the ZiLL intranet site on AI
