1. Education as a factor for successful, secure and c<\/span>ompetitive integration of AI<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>

Global trends toward automating a significant portion of current jobs, including through the application of artificial intelligence, will generate demand for employees who understand the concepts, methods and technologies of AI. The concept of AI requires a change in the existing educational paradigm, both in terms of how the educational process is conducted and what is studied and what skills are acquired in the classroom and academic environment. AI for education and in education will have more significant dimensions that require focused and viable models, which will be
at the core of the discussion in this panel.\u00a0<\/p>

2. Economic aspects of Artificial Intelligence application <\/span>\u2013 factors, patterns, expected trends<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>

In this panel, participants will discuss topics related to economic growth and economic efficiency in the context of the development and application of AI technologies in socio-economic life. AI promises to transform many professional functions such as the division of labor and the relationship between workers and physical capital. The importance of researching and studying the impact of AI on tasks performed by skilled labor is particularly significant for achieving economic development. The priority of innovation and AI integration must be combined with the development of robust regulatory frameworks to achieve public trust. Further research on how AI and related technologies can significantly reduce overall and administrative costs is an important area of discussion. What effect will AI have on productivity, economic growth, as well as on the social inclusion and income distribution? The impact on work processes and the labor market will be a key element in answering these questions.<\/p>

3.<\/span> Strategic choices for businesses <\/span>in AI\u2019 context<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>

We observe how artificial intelligence performs administrative and repetitive tasks faster, better and at a lower cost, which take up a significant part of managers\u2018 time. The main goal of the panel discussion will be strategic thinking regarding the dilemma of how AI will continue to redefine management, what the trends and barriers are for improving industry and enterprise management through AI technologies, and which AI tools should be used and which not. The application of AI in marketing and social media as a resource for studying customer relationships, generating appropriate content and serving as a powerful tool for data analysis will be discussed to identify opportunities for optimizing marketing activities and improving marketing process efficiency. The panel will also discuss policies and opportunities for ensuring appropriate infrastructure for integrating AI with a focus on increasing security in its use.<\/p>

4.<\/span> Aspects of AI in organizational development and human resources management<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

The introduction of artificial intelligence into the business environment triggers a wave of changes that affect not only the operational efficiency of companies but also the psychology of employees. The panel discussion aims to bring together academics with experience and research results, focusing on theoretical and practical aspects, perspectives and global trends, discussion topics covering the use and role of AI in business and organizational psychology, ethics, in human resources management, how AI affects the psychology of employees in a business context, and what strategies can be used to minimize its negative impacts while enhancing the positive aspects of this transformation.<\/p>

5.<\/span> Forum for students, doctoral students and young researchers<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Doctoral students and young researchers will have the opportunity to present their scientific results, exchange ideas and share experiences in the fields of AI application in education, economy, business and management, organizational psychology and human resource management, as well as how to enhance their expertise.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
