AI and Supercomputers in Practice: A Lecture for TUKE Students
On 5 March 2026, an expert lecture by Dr. Lucia Malíčková from the National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) took place at the Technical University of Košice (TUKE), titled “Can Supercomputers and Artificial Intelligence Be Useful?”. The event was held in lecture hall PK7 in a hybrid format (both online and in person) and was attended by 110 TUKE students.
The lecture focused on introducing the world of high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) and their practical applications in modern research, innovation, and industry. Dr. Malíčková presented to the students how these technologies are used in real projects and how they can help address complex scientific and societal challenges.
During the presentation, she emphasized the importance of connecting theoretical knowledge with real projects and practical applications. The students also learned about opportunities to engage in technological projects that use supercomputers and artificial intelligence tools, as well as the career opportunities these fields offer for future professionals.
The lecture was followed by a discussion during which students asked questions about the use of HPC and AI in various sectors, as well as about opportunities for collaboration with technology centres and research projects.
The event was held as part of the AI Pub Meeting series, which aims to connect experts from practice with students and the academic community while promoting modern digital technologies.
The participation of more than one hundred students confirmed the growing interest of young people in the fields of supercomputing, artificial intelligence, and digital innovation, which are playing an increasingly important role in science, industry, and society today.
