The era of models is coming to an end—intelligent systems are taking their place. Language- & Reasoning Models are no longer scaling Language models have fascinated us. With each new generation, the parameter counts grew, the complexity of the training data increased, and the linguistic finesse

AI that Acts must also be able to decide traceably Artificial intelligence has made enormous progress in recent years. Language models (LLMs) create texts that are barely distinguishable from human language, and agent systems automate even complex processes. But with growing autonomy comes growing responsibility: systems

We are living in an era of fundamental change. Geopolitical tensions, technological disruptions and demographic shifts are shaping current world events. In Europe, we face the challenge of strengthening our economic resilience, securing our defense capabilities and managing the transformation of industry and infrastructure.

We are currently at a significant milestone in the development of artificial intelligence. A look back reveals two distinctive development phases to date: The first phase marked the beginning: advances in algorithms, exponentially growing data volumes and a powerful infrastructure created the basis for the widespread
