What is your favorite science fiction novel? How much do you earn as a scientist? Do you have to have a high IQ to be a scientist? With these and other questions that you probably don't hear every day as a scientist, our fifth graders pestered seasoned representatives of science. This was possible exclusively during our science project on the topic of "Artificial Intelligence". In addition to the latest developments in the field of AI, the scientists also answered the questions of the students from our three fifth grades, which revolved around the profession of a scientist. The online event "I'm a scientist" has been successfully held in the UK every year since 2010 - the TRIAS schools are very pleased to be part of the German edition organized by the non-profit initiative "Wissenschaft im Dialog". And who knows: Maybe the next Einstein will come from Vogtland?
