NS and AI
In order to improve our services and make travel easier and more efficient, we make use of artificial intelligence (AI). Examples include the seat-finder in the NS app, or sensors in our trains that indicate when maintenance is necessary.
ROBUST
NS is participating in the ROBUST programme, in which 17 knowledge institutions, 19 industrial partners and 15 societal organisations collaborate on the development and human-centred application of AI. NS is one of the industrial partners and will work together with ProRail, TU Delft and Utrecht University on the development and application of AI for logistics challenges.
Kickstart AI
AI is having an increasing impact globally, and the Netherlands cannot fall behind. That's why we've launched Kickstart AI together with our partners Ahold Delhaize, ING, KLM and Philips. With Kickstart AI, we aim to promote and stimulate joint knowledge, talent and innovation, such as by collaborating with universities, expanding our knowledge of AI with the national AI course, and by organising challenges.
