ICONEST 2024

Proceedings of ICONEST_2024

This volume contains the papers presented at the 2nd International Conference on Emerging Trends in AI and Computational Technologies (ICONEST), held at Universitas PGRI Ronggolawe (UNIROW) in Tuban, Indonesia, on November 15-16, 2024. Supporting UNIROW and Honorary Conference Chair: Prof. Dr. Alvaro Rocha ISEG, University of Lisbon, Portugal. The conference have been attended invited international professors from several countries. ICONEST 2024 has the objective of bringing together few exceptional researchers, engineers, and industry experts in the fields of Artificial Intelligence and Computational Technologies to exchange their ideas and discussing their applications. The proceedings cover various aspects and were selected for presentation at the conference after a thorough peer-review process, which resulted in a high quality of accepted papers. Discussed topics spanned the wide range of possibilities enabled by AI techniques, including both language-based models and generative intelligence, as well as advances in machine learning and robotics, as well as the ethical implications of AI, and how to enable AI as a force for good in the world. In addition, it tackled the accelerating speed of AI, its advantages for humanity and the associated potential threats, with abstract sessions on AI use in fields like medicine, entertainment, finance and creative industries. Other topics of interest in ICONEST 2024 included AI for Climate Change and Biodiversity Conservation, AI in Sustainability and Environmental Impact and AI in Education and Smart City Planning. The emphasis was on promoting multidisciplinary cooperation and supporting dialogues that might accelerate a paradigm shift for more sustainable and ethical AI approaches. We hope this volume will greatly further engagement with ongoing work on artificial intelligence and provide a window into new state-of-the-art technologies and their transformative possibilities. By investigating the potential pitfalls and possibilities in AI development, this book hopes to provide guidance for future paths toward the sustainable and ethical use of data and technology in our societies. ICONEST 2024 would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of the organizing committee members, keynote speakers, session chairs, and all attendees. Our heartfelt thanks to all those who contributed to making this conference a venue for innovation and conversation in the realms of AI and computational technologies. We hope these proceedings will help inspire continued growth and ‘paradigm shifts’ within this exciting domain.
