IA sovrana e riarmo digitale europeo. Standard normativi e competizione globale

October 3-4, 2025 - Palazzo d’Avalos, Via Largo Castello, 80079, Isola di Procida (NA), Italia

Scientific and Organizational Board: Roberta Montinaro, Salvatore Orlando, Daniele Imbruglia, Francesca Bertelli, Livia Aulino, Gennaro Di Martino, Martina Rubino de Ritis, Chiara Vitagliano

The event aims to focus on the need for greater infrastructure and digital technological resources by the European Union and its Member States. The reference to regulatory standards and global competition highlights the debate on different approaches to regulation - starting with the varying weight and meaning attributed to the protection of fundamental rights - and their impact on the market.

The event will take place over two days.

On the first day, a workshop is scheduled, divided into two main thematic “workshops” ("The Context" and "Sovereignty Trials in Europe"), where specific discussions will be held on Trump’s Executive Orders and the context in the USA (the “Technological Republic”), official EU and national documents on “digital/technological/AI sovereignty,” golden power regulations in the digital sector, and EU and non-EU policies on AI governance in the context of the circulation and “production” of both personal and non-personal data.

On Saturday, a public lecture by Maurizio Borghi will be held to present the book A. Sissa, A. Santangelo, M. Borghi, Critica di ChatGPT, Eléuthera, 2025.

Subsequently, Francesco Astone, Gabriele Carapezza Figlia, Alberto Maria Gambino, and Vincenzo Ricciuto will present the collective work Annuario OGID 2023-2024: Legal Profiles of Neuromarketing (edited by S. Orlando), Sapienza Università Editrice, 2025.

AI Coded Center of Excellence is pleased to sponsor the second edition of the Summer School “Language and Translation Technologies”.

The course is aimed at students, professionals, and academics interested in exploring the intersections between advanced language technologies and the field of translation. Through a mix of theoretical lectures and practical workshops, participants will gain skills in the latest AI-supported translation technologies, exploring the use of neural network models and the evolution of machine translation up to post-editing phases and translation quality assessment.

The main goal of the Summer School is to provide participants with sessions that enable a deeper understanding of emerging technologies in the field of language and translation, using AI tools to optimize their workflows, as well as to develop skills to critically assess and improve translation quality in a professional context.

The faculty of the Summer School includes national and international experts in translation technologies and the translation profession.

The Summer School will take place in Frigento (AV), Piazza Umberto I, from September 16 to 20, 2025, from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.

The course is limited to a maximum of 25 participants. The University of Naples “L’Orientale” offers 5 scholarships covering the registration fee for its Master’s degree students.

The application deadline is August 20. If the number of applications exceeds the available spots, selection will be made on a first-come, first-served basis. However, the right is reserved to establish additional selection criteria if necessary. By August 25, the winners of the 5 scholarships will be notified via email and will need to confirm their attendance. The registration fee must be paid by August 31, and payment instructions will be communicated via email to registered participants.

The AI-CoDED Centre of Excellence, among its various objectives, seeks to foster greater public engagement with research and to promote informed public discourse on urgent and highly relevant issues, such as the understanding and use of AI systems, through an interdisciplinary approach. The Center adopts a critical perspective, emphasizing both the benefits and opportunities of digital technologies, as well as the potential risks and harms arising from their misuse.

As part of its third mission activities, the Centre organized a hackathon (an event whose name derives from the combination of “hacking” and “marathon”). A hackathon is a time-limited collaborative initiative in which individuals with diverse technical skills come together to design and develop prototypes of innovative solutions or software projects aimed at addressing specific challenges, often drawn from real-world issues. These events provide a valuable opportunity for participants to apply their expertise, acquire new knowledge, engage in networking activities, and strengthen collaboration and teamwork.

In particular, the “AI-CODED Hackathon 2025” focused on generative artificial intelligence, with specific attention to issues of inclusiveness and vulnerability and was designed for students from Liceo Vittorio Imbriani (Pomigliano d’Arco, NA), in collaboration with academic partners who helped organize and run the event. 

A total of 43 students were divided into seven groups and participated in hands-on workshops centered around assigned themes. Their task was to explore and propose innovative solutions, models, processes, or services.

At the end of the event, prizes were awarded to the participating students.

The AI-CODED Research Centre is pleased to welcome Prof. Singh, visiting professor at University of Naples L'Orientale the  from April 28 to May 13.

Ranjodh Singh Dhaliwal holds the professorship in Digital Humanities, Artificial Intelligence, and Media Studies in the department of Arts, Media, and Philosophy at the University of Basel, where he also directs the Digital Humanities Laboratory. 

He was previously the Ruth and Paul Idzik Collegiate Chair in Digital Scholarship and English at the University of Notre Dame. 
Co-author (with Théo Lepage-Richer and Lucy Suchman) of Neural Networks (University of Minnesota Press and meson press, 2024), and his award-winning writing—situated between media theory, literary studies, computer science, political economy, critical design, and science and technology studies—can be found in Critical Inquiry, Configurations, American Literature, Journal of Cinema and Media Studies, ACM FDG, ACM UIST, and Design Issues, among other venues. In his current book project, “Rendering: A Political Anatomy of Computation,” Dhaliwal examines the history of technology to show how our cultural narratives, politico-economic formulations, and epistemic beliefs become crystallized into computational hardware and software architectures. 

He is an incoming president of the Society for Literature, Science, and the Arts (SLSA).
