This year’s MASIT conference, hosted by Macedonia’s ICT Chamber of Commerce, aims to bring together leading experts, academics, and industry professionals to explore how digital transformation and artificial intelligence continue to shape society. Prof. Sefidanis’ sessions will offer insights into the role of transhumanism and AI in expanding human capabilities, as well as the ethical, social, and philosophical dimensions associated with these advancements.

With his extensive background in robotics and artificial intelligence, Prof. Sefidanis is set to provide a unique perspective on how technology could redefine human potential and creativity, exploring AI’s role in both practical applications and as a form of “humanity’s last art.” This discussion promises to challenge attendees’ perspectives on the role of technology in the modern world and offer glimpses into a future where human and machine interaction may become even more intertwined.

MASIT’s conference underscores Macedonia’s commitment to fostering innovation and dialogue in the digital era, and Prof. Sefidanis’ contribution is expected to be a highlight of the event.
