Bienvenue sur l'Institut Polytechnique de Paris

One year after the AI Action Summit, and ahead of the upcoming international event, the “India AI Impact Summit” in New Delhi, Institut Polytechnique de Paris and Université PSL, together with HEC Paris, are joining forces to explore how French research is shaping the standards for innovative and responsible AI. “AI in Paris: One Year After the Summit — Building the Future” will bring together French scientists and decision-makers on Monday, February 9, in the afternoon at the Collège de France. The event will highlight the interdisciplinary approach that strengthens our ecosystems, with active participation from the AI clusters Hi! PARIS and PR[AI]RIE, as well as the AI and Society Institute.

Equity is an essential condition for combating climate change, says Céline Guivarch, professor at École Polytechnique. The theme will be discussed at the REFLEXIONS conference on energy transition, along with sustainability and security. Also a Research Director in climate change economics at the Centre International de Recherche sur l'Environnement et le Développement (CIRED*) at the École nationale des ponts et chaussées, the scientist will chair the roundtable on energy justice on February 5, 2026.

The offshore wind turbines of 2030 will be floating, gigantic, and capable of producing tens of megawatts of electricity. Several technologies exist to keep these behemoths afloat. Among them are damping plates designed to reduce the vertical movements—known as pounding—that they undergo and improve their efficiency. Luc Pastur, associate professor at ENSTA's Laboratory of Mechanics and Interfaces (LMI*) and director of the Offwind program, is co-supervising a thesis aimed at studying the fluid dynamics around these plates.
