AIRI Institute of Artificial Intelligence was established by Sberbank in December 2020 as a Russian autonomous non-profit organization. The main goal is to find opportunities for using artificial intelligence to solve complex social, economic and scientific problems. Over the year, the number of employees of the institute has grown to 100 people, of which 37 are candidates and doctors of science, 15 are professors.
The institute is governed by a board chaired by Jurgen Schmidhuber, a German and Swiss scientist specializing in training neural networks. Employees are part of 18 teams working on different areas, the main ones being fundamental research to create more versatile, stronger and smarter algorithms and solving practical problems using artificial intelligence for medicine, science development, and industry support.
