Methodological and Practical Challenges of AI Research

This workshop addresses the methodological and practical challenges of researching AI beyond disciplinary boundaries. By bringing together scholars from diverse research backgrounds, the event fosters a collaborative environment to explore how different disciplines approach AI-related research questions. It focuses on the key decisions and lessons learned when researching AI across different faculties: Faculty of Arts, Faculty of Economics and Business, Faculty of Philosophy, Centre for Information Technology, and Campus Fryslân at the University of Groningen. Participants will gain insights into the methodologies and practicalities of AI research and have the opportunity to engage in a hands-on (Python-based) technical session.

The event is supported by the Jantina Tammes School of Technology, Society and AI under the 2026 Grassroots Grant “Prompting with multimodal generative AI: Bridging computational methods and critical AI studies.”
