ARTIFIGEN 1st Multiplier Event Successfully Held in Thessaloniki

Launching the Pilot Testing Phase of the ARTIFIGEN 1st Prototype

On 28 November 2025, the ARTIFIGEN project successfully organised its 1st Multiplier Event in Thessaloniki, Greece, hosted by the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki within the framework of the Erasmus+ project “AI-based chatbot GPT integration coaching toolkit”.

The event brought together educators, researchers, university students, and professionals interested in the integration of Artificial Intelligence in higher education. Participants had the opportunity to explore the ARTIFIGEN vision and discuss the growing role of AI-powered tools in modern educational environments.

A major highlight of the event was the launch of the pilot testing phase of the ARTIFIGEN 1st Prototype. Students and participants actively interacted with the platform, testing its initial functionalities and AI-powered chatbot environment in real educational scenarios. Their hands-on involvement provided valuable feedback regarding usability, functionality, user experience, and pedagogical relevance, contributing directly to the next development cycle of the platform.

The event also included presentations and discussions on:

Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education

Ethical and regulatory aspects of AI-assisted academic work

Practical applications of chatbots in teaching and learning

Future perspectives of digital innovation in education

The strong participation and highly positive feedback confirmed the growing interest of the academic community in responsible and effective AI integration within educational practice.

The ARTIFIGEN consortium would like to warmly thank all participants for their active contribution and insightful discussions, which continue to support the successful development of the project.
