The Artificial Intelligence Opportunities Exploration and Exploitation team, responding to the growing interest in generative artificial intelligence models in every aspect of life, cordially invites those studying at the Warsaw University of Technology to share their experiences of using generative artificial intelligence tools in an anonymous survey:https://ankieta.pw.edu.pl/index.php/644669?newtest=Y&lang=pl

The survey will be active until 30 April, 2024. We are keen to get cross-sectional information from all representatives of the CI.

Its goal is among others to diagnose the possibilities of utilising AI models for improving the functioning of our University.

The contracting authority announces that it is cancelling the procedure for the execution of the civil contract entitled. ‘Experimental studies related to the possibility of improving the resolution of tomographic imaging in lens-free holographic microscopy’. In the announcement of 12 April, 2024 launching the procedure, the Ordering Party mistakenly put the date of bid submission as 24 March, 2024 and included an attachment with a model civil law contract (attachment 2a contract of mandate) instead of a contract for specific work (attachment 6a to the Rector's order no. 87/2021). At the same time, the Contracting Authority informs that it is posting a new notice IMiF-98a/2024 seeking bidders for the execution of a civil law contract (contract for work) entitled. , ‘Experimental studies related to the possibility of improving the resolution and realisation of tomographic imaging in lensless holographic microscopy’.

Test access to Scopus AI: Revolutionising research search with artificial intelligence. We invite you to test the new Scopus AI tool (Scopus AI tab on the Scopus homepage) under Elsevier's national licence.

The tool helps at every stage of academic work: when conducting research, searching and reviewing results, reviewing articles, verifying data and when creating bibliographies. Scopus AI draws on the metadata and abstracts of papers registered in Scopus and published after 2013. Access to the tool will be active until 31.05.2024.
