Generative AI marks a tectonic shift, not only for digital marketing. Both academics and practitioners are only at the beginning of understanding the far-reaching implications of GenAI. The Lab is our umbrella to unify all our GenAI initiatives, be it our teaching or research, which we dedicate exclusively to better understanding the implications of GenAI on academia, business, and society.

 

GenAI Lab Seminar Series

We frequently invite thought-leading scholars to our GenAI Lab Seminar Series who present their work on generative AI. The seminars are a continuation of a seminar series that Jochen Hartmann organized as part of the DFG-funded research unit FOR 1452. Previous speakers (among others) included Shunyuan Zhang (Harvard Business School), Dokyun Lee (Boston University), Francisco Villarroel Ordenes (LUISS Guido Carli University), Alex Burnap (Yale School of Management), and Ryan Dew (Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania).
