Functie:
Senior Consultant
I am Freek Bomhof, programme director of the AI research programme Appl.AI within TNO. During my studies (Electrical Engineering), I worked on image recognition, a precursor to AI. I continued this work (by reading handwritten addresses with a computer for mail sorting at KPN), and then witnessed the rise of the internet up close, becoming immediately fascinated by the impact digitalisation has on our way of working and living.
