We often encounter artificial intelligence in our daily lives without being aware of it. A six-part series of mini-documentaries from the new RTL Z program Cybersessies AI takes a look at Dutch companies successfully implementing AI. This week's focus: the NS (Dutch Railways).

Steven Woudenberg, NS Data Lead, explains why AI is important for NS. "Our goal is to make the Netherlands sustainably accessible for everyone. This is quite a complex puzzle where AI is a significant help to us."

Watch the full report below to get a good understanding of how the NS utilises AI, from predicting train occupancy to the availability of public transport bicycles and optimising the timetable.

Cybersessies AI, a collaboration between Kickstart AI and RTL Z, is a weekly talk show hosted by Remy Gieling, founder of ai.nl. The series features various experts engaging in discussions about important topics within the world of AI.
