<span style="font-weight: 600;">AI/ML continues to play a critical role across all phases of the EIC</span>, from detector design and R&D to deployment and data analysis. This workshop offers a valuable opportunity to
<span style="font-weight: 600;">stay informed about ongoing AI/ML projects and strategic directions</span>, while also serving as a platform for interdisciplinary dialogue among
<span style="font-weight: 600;">theorists, experimentalists, accelerator physicists, and AI/ML practitioners</span>.<br>
We look forward to your participation and contributions to this dynamic event.</div>
