Voices from Horizon Symposium 1.0
What people said about us.
A very stimulating and insightful exchange alongside eminent technological thought leaders.
DTU is proud to have hosted this landmark event. The collaboration between academia, industry, and civil society is exactly the model needed for responsible AI development.
A4G Horizons was a great conference. If there's one thing I took away, it's that I want to use AI to become the best version of myself.
An extremely invigorating session, the format worked beautifully. The focus on policy, ethics, and real-world AI impact made it more than just a tech event.
Such a great conference. My biggest takeaway: I want to use AI to become the best version of myself, not to replace what makes me human.
An extremely invigorating session, the format worked beautifully. The focus on bringing AI to underserved communities is what brought me here.

A letter to a professional who almost passed on this
Dear expert who has more to say than the time to say it,
You have probably already thought: I don’t have a spare weekend for an essay. Fair enough. But this is not a thesis. It is one argument, in your own voice, on something you already have a view on. The people who place are not the ones with the most time. They are the ones with something real to say.
You might also think your take is not formal enough. That is the point. The essays that land are not academic. They come from what you have actually seen: the calls you have had to make, and the shifts you noticed before others did.
Your experience is the credential. Put it into one clear argument about AI, work and society, and it stops living in meetings and starts reaching the people who decide.
Warmly,
The A4G Intelex Secretariat
