Podcast-interview med Kasper Hallenborg, leder af SDU’s Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Institut: Hvordan bygges et smartere og mere uafhængigt Europa? kunstig intelligens og robotteknologiens rolle

I denne podcast taler Insightview med Kasper Hallenborg, leder af SDU’s Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Institut i Odense – et internationalt anerkendt forskningsmiljø inden for robotteknologi, software og kunstig intelligens. Vi sætter fokus på udviklingen inden for AI og robotter – og i den sammenhæng også droner, som igen er blevet aktuelle efter en ”kapabel aktørs” ulovlige indtrængen på kritisk infrastruktur i Danmark og andre europæiske lande.

Europa står i dag over for behovet for at blive mere uafhængig af både Kina og USA. Kina er tæt forbundet med Rusland, og tilliden til USA er usikker. Krigen i Ukraine har samtidig skabt behov for en markant europæisk oprustning, hvilket øger efterspørgslen efter ressourcer – fra kapital til højtuddannet arbejdskraft. Det sker midt i en periode med kraftig demografisk modvind, der kræver langt mere effektiv ressourceudnyttelse for at undgå inflation. Med andre ord: produktiviteten skal op.

Insightview taler med Kasper Hallenborg om, hvordan teknologien allerede bruges, hvilke erfaringer der er gjort, og hvor den kan anvendes fremover – blandt andet i forbindelse med, at nye danske flådefartøjer kan og bør bygges i Danmark, ifølge Kasper.

Podcast interview with Kasper Hallenborg, Head of SDU's Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller Institute: Building a Smarter and More Independent Europe - The Role of AI and Robotics

In this podcast, Insightview talks with Kasper Hallenborg, Head of SDU’s Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Institute in Odense, Denmark – an internationally recognised research centre within robotics, software, and artificial intelligence.

We focus on developments in AI and robotics – and, in that context, also on drones, which have once again become a topical issue following a “capable actor’s” illegal intrusion into critical infrastructure in Denmark and other European countries.

Europe today faces the need to become more independent of both China and the United States. China is closely aligned with Russia, while trust in the United States is uncertain. At the same time, the war in Ukraine has created a need for significant European rearmament, increasing demand for resources – from capital to highly educated labour.

This comes at a time when Europe is facing strong demographic headwinds, requiring far more efficient use of resources to avoid inflation. In other words, productivity must increase.

Insightview speaks with Kasper Hallenborg about how technology is already being applied, what lessons have been learned, and where it can be used in the future – including, according to Kasper, in connection with new Danish naval vessels that can and should be built in Denmark.
