Generative AI is in a revolutionary phase of development. This has and will continue to have profound impact on society as well as science. It serves as enabler but also presents inherent challenges. It is important to develop a realistic understanding on the transformative nature of generative AI for the sciences and society, and how to responsibly use this revolutionary technology. As a network of European centres of excellence in digital technology, the ERCIM institutes are well positioned to contribute to this discussion within a national and European context.
