What this means in practice
N3XTCODER's AI for Impact course is a free, 5-chapter video course that covers foundational AI knowledge, hands-on skills and concrete social-impact applications. More than 100,000 people have taken it. There is also an AI for Impact programme, a 6-week remote programme that brings together AI innovators, civil society and the public sector to build practical solutions to real challenges, with a final pitch at re:publica in Berlin.
Multilang Socialmap, the winner of N3XTCODER's Open Innovation Programme, built a multilingual chatbot for the Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband Berlin's social services platform, using retrieval-augmented generation to make support available in many languages including easy language. The same RAG architecture as our production builds for a leading member network (1,000+ HumHub members) and GDV (400+ insurance companies).
Cultural and heritage education is also a fit. Clemens Neudecker, head of data science at the Berlin State Library, has spoken with N3XTCODER about how AI is used for computer vision, natural language processing and pattern recognition in the context of digitising and analysing the library's holdings.
