Center for Artificial Intelligence
Welcome to CAIRO.thws
We chase questions, push research, and use it to make a difference.
Since 2021, we’ve been exploring how AI can help people understand, create, and solve problems — in ways that enhance, rather than replace, human strengths.
Our team of researchers, students, and collaborators works across machine learning, perception, computational creativity, and cognitive modelling. We stay curious, we challenge assumptions, and we build responsibly — because innovation should be thoughtful, not just fast.
thws Hackathon 2026
Join our Hackathon "InclusivAI: AI for Diversity, Accessibilty, and Participation"!
A hands-on event that brings together creative minds and dedicated problem-solvers to develop concrete AI-powered solutions for greater inclusion, diversity and social participation.
Whether it’s accessibility, education, the world of work, mobility, communication or intercultural coexistence: you’ll work in a team on real-world challenges and turn your ideas into initial prototypes in a short, high-energy format.
Whether you’re studying AI, computer science, design, social sciences, business or a completely different subject, already have practical experience or simply have a passion for innovation – here you can help shape an inclusive future and develop solutions that make a real difference.
