• The Google Doc (linked above) is now the working document, should contain all info. 
• Next step is to refine the current text. To better answer all the questions they are asking.
• Will we get feedback from UiO? 
  • We are not sure, but should in any case proceed now, as we do not have much time until June 7. 
  • We think there will be some coordination at faculty level at some point, but we don't know what and when.
    • The sketches which Oslo will lead will get som help. With budgeting, for instance. 
• We might have an advantage, by covering themes not covered by anyone else, and we have multiple institutions. 
• We should focus on our own sketch for now, and worry about possible collaborations later. What do we want to do?

• Main theme: Large-scale data and large-scale infrastructure. 
  
  • We have a list of topics (top of page 3), need to group them and tell a consistent story. 
• Industry component:
  • It is not clear what they will ask on involvement of industry partners. But we think they will ask for collaboration with industry.
  • We should probably ask. If this is not important for the June deadline, we can leave it for later.

 

• Add to document:
  • List of contacts (industry)
  • List of topics / chapters (grouping the bullet points we already have)
    • Do the grouping related to the three "spor" NFR has defined?
      • Samfunnskonsekvenser av KI og annen digitale teknologier
      • Teknologi: Utvikling av fremtidens digitale teknologier, med hovedvekt på kunstig intelligens
      • Innovasjon: Hvordan ta i bruk KI og digitale teknologier.
• James makes a newdle for a working meeting Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday next week.  

 

• Ali from UiA will read the document closely and figure out how they can fit into this. 
• HVL has talked to UiB and will be joining their initiative (in addition to the NorCC one). 

 

• Other initiatives we know of:
  • UiO dScience
  • UiO something health-related
  • UiO FI quantum initiative
  • UiB
