From transcript to summary: The Mittweida Scripter is getting smarter

In addition to the transcription itself, users can now choose directly whether they would like an AI-generated summary to be created as well. To this end, a large language model has been integrated into the Mittweida Scripter infrastructure, which runs on the organisationā€™s own server resources.

IWD Transfer

IWD Transfer facilitates the transfer of scientific findings and developments across faculties into business and society. As a centre of expertise and services, we design and coordinate study programmes, continuing professional development and knowledge transfer initiatives, support innovative teaching and learning formats, and connect the university with regional businesses and other partners in society. In doing so, we combine academic expertise with practical educational and collaborative formats and support initiatives in teaching, research and knowledge transfer.
