AI Swiss Annual Conference: AI in Education
On Thursday, February 5, 2026, the AI Swiss association is organizing its annual conference in Fribourg, dedicated to a question that has become central: how to think, learn, and teach in the age of artificial intelligence? Produced in partnership with HES-SO, this event offers a day of reflection and experimentation on the place of AI in education, at a time when these technologies are already finding their way into classrooms and homes.
AI & education: different perspectives, practical applications, and societal challenges
As AI models demonstrate reasoning, reasoning, and programming capabilities that sometimes surpass those of humans, a tension arises: creation has never been so accessible, yet the question of meaning, ownership, and responsibility has never been so acute. It is this paradox that the AI Swiss conference intends to explore, combining educational, technological, and civic approaches, in collaboration with leading partners such as HES-SO, HEP Vaud, ETH Zurich, iRAISE, École 42, and the State of Vaud, among others.
The event will be divided into three complementary parts: practical workshops to experiment with and understand the concrete uses of AI, a plenary session followed by a round table discussion to debate ethical, educational, and societal issues, and then a cocktail reception to encourage informal exchanges.
