Panel What Do We Still Need to Learn?
Paula Gonzalez Avalos, Sebastian Unterreitmeier, Silvia Hänig, Dr. Kristian Rother

AI is no longer just a technical tool. It is fundamentally rewriting how we approach every professional task and we are now seeing a shift that impacts every role in every industry. In this panel discussion we will discuss the question no one can answer too confidently: in a world where AI writes the code, drafts the report, and automates the pipeline, what exactly are we still supposed to be learning?
