The first International Artificial Intelligence Olympiad will be held in Burgas from 9 to 15 August 2024, BTA reports. Students, leaders and scientists will launch an AI Olympiad that will combine scientific and applied tasks. 

The Olympiad is held under the patronage of President Rumen Radev.

According to the Association of Science Olympiad Teams, nearly 200 students from 40 countries around the world will gather and show their knowledge in the field of artificial intelligence. 

International scientists from leading universities are involved in the organisation and compilation of the tasks, and partners and sponsors include global institutions, NGOs and companies, with Google as the general sponsor. 

The idea is for the science competition to challenge participants to think critically and build theoretical and practical knowledge, to provide perspective on the possibilities in this field, and to raise the moral and ethical issues surrounding artificial intelligence for them and society.
