The Data Science Seminar "Agentic AI: who does what?" takes place 27 May from 16:15 at the Delta study building auditorium 1037.
With the adoption of agentic AI, the focus shifts from individual tools to systems in which humans and AI agents work, make decisions, and act together. This raises a central question: who does what? Which tasks remain in human hands, which can be delegated to AI, and how should work be distributed across different agents and teams?
This seminar focuses on how organisations can solve these questions in practice. It explores how processes are being redesigned, who leads the adoption of new solutions, how responsibility is divided, and what kind of coordination is required when humans and AI agents work together.
