The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in small and medium-sized enterprises and in public administration is the goal of european, national and regional digitization and innovation strategies. However, available data and experiences show that in the partner regions of this project (South Bohemia, Upper Austria and Vienna) the potential of AI is used much less than in other European and non-European countries, mainly in the field of R&D, only slightly in connection with the processes of large companies. The territorial interconnection of the partner regions of the project reveals a number of existing economic and tourist, educational, social, environmental relations - also in public administration, but there are also a number of common obstacles to further development of the common territory, including in the case of the introduction of new technologies and trends in the processes of SMEs and institutions operating in the border area. Artificial intelligence plays an important role in this context, as it is a megatrend in the field of digitalization and offers a number of new possibilities and opportunities, especially in view of current global events. The goal of this project is to create a cross-border network of cooperating entities to (1) jointly identify opportunities for the practical use of AI, (2) find an appropriate and effective application of this technology to optimize organizational processes, and (3) find ways to overcome existing obstacles that hinder the implementation of AI in practice. The outcomes of the project will be realized based on the initial analytical work (Letters of Interest annexed to the proposal, the analysis of available data and documents, expert analysis, stakeholder analysis, the mutual exchange of expertise and experience between regions), which will lead to a cross-border roll-out of the strategic agenda with the aim of mutually supporting and accelerating the cross-border implementation of AI into business and institutional practice (WTP1). AI Social Design Thinking Labs will be established on both sides of the border to support the realization of the strategic agenda (WPT2). The lab methodology will include participant discussion on responsible implementation and use of AI. As an accompanying tool to the lab concept, 3 introductory educational modules will be developed targeting the following audiences. The use of project results will be supported by a comprehensive set of communication tools (WPC). (English)
