“At the international level, we are in a good position,” says Rita Cucchiara , director of the National Laboratory of Cini Ais and manager of the Nvaitc of the Ru. “But, there is researchers, therefore the means to pay for them, and the tools. This is a field that is fundamental. Suffice it to say that Germany has launched a program for the recruitment of professors and doctorates that deal with artificial intelligence.”
