Supporting the future of AI in Poland. Sii Poland as a Silver Sponsor of the ML in PL Conference 

As one of Poland’s most influential meeting points for machine-learning practitioners, the ML in PL Conference brings together a community that values rigorous research and practical dialogue. Rooted in its non-profit, volunteer-driven origins, the event has grown since 2017 into a space where emerging ideas in modern ML are tested and shaped by experts from around the world. By supporting this year’s edition as a Silver Sponsor, Sii Poland contributes to strengthening a research ecosystem. 

A space to understand the state of AI 

In a time of rapid development and rising public attention around artificial intelligence, having a place where science meets open dialogue is invaluable. The ML in PL Conference, held annually in Warsaw by the ML in PL Association, serves exactly that purpose. 

Sii Poland was proud to contribute to this year’s edition, supporting the event’s mission to advance open AI research and foster connections between academia and industry. 

Exploring the challenges of AI safety 

One of the recurring themes at this year’s conference was AI safety and trustworthiness – an increasingly vital area as large language models (LLMs) and agentic systems become more capable and autonomous. 

The conversation around AI safety has evolved far beyond traditional robustness, – said Piotr Ćwikliński, AI Expert at Sii Poland. – We’re now exploring how alignment and fairness interact with the design of multi-agent systems, how instruction prefix tuning shapes model behavior, and how biases hidden in tokenization affect global accessibility. These discussions are essential if we want AI to serve people reliably across languages and contexts. 

Rethinking how AI learns 

Another highlight of the conference was the focus on modular learning — an approach aimed at improving how AI assistants learn and generalize across diverse tasks. 

AI systems have achieved remarkable success where massive datasets are available, but many real-world applications don’t fit that model, – explained Katarzyna Cepińska, AI Expert at Sii Poland. – The idea of modular learning offers a new perspective – breaking down complex behaviors into smaller, reusable components. This could make AI assistants far more efficient and adaptable in scientific, industrial, or infrastructure domains. 

This modular paradigm could become a cornerstone for future AI solutions that operate safely and transparently in data-scarce environments – something highly relevant to industries where Sii delivers machine learning and automation systems. 

Building Poland’s AI ecosystem 

Finally, the conference also shed light on the growing research infrastructure in Poland. 

The establishment of the IDEAS Institute marks a new chapter for Poland’s AI ecosystem and may present an opportunity to strengthen the position of Polish scientists on the international stage, given their successes at leading international conferences, – said Martyna Wiącek, AI Expert at Sii Poland. – It is also an example of how investment in science goes beyond purely theoretical solutions and can have a strong impact on practical applications — from cybersecurity and robotics to defense.

This national initiative, overseen by the Ministry of Digital Affairs and the Ministry of National Defence, connects leading Polish and international researchers under one roof – and aligns perfectly with Sii’s vision of strengthening the link between AI research and practical innovation.
