We now know the winners of the second edition of the ‘Competition for Poland’s Best AI Theses’! As the Digital Poland Foundation, a strategic partner and sponsor of the social category, we are proud to share the results. The standard of this year’s 33 submitted theses exceeded our wildest expectations, proving that Poland’s artificial intelligence ecosystem is growing in strength and has a bright future ahead of it. Meet the outstanding graduates whose research is shaping the development of AI in Poland – from advanced technical solutions to key legal, copyright and social challenges.
We now know the results of the second edition of the Competition for the best AI-related dissertations!
As a Foundation, we are honoured to be a strategic partner of the initiative and the sponsor of the social sciences (non-technical) track.
This year, 33 theses were submitted for assessment across the entire competition. As the members of the Competition Committee emphasise, the standard of entries was even higher than last year! This is wonderful proof of the dynamic development of the Polish artificial intelligence ecosystem. Selecting the best of the best was extremely difficult, and the final ranking was often decided by subtle differences.
We extend special congratulations to the winners of the social category (master’s theses), for which we provided expert oversight:
🥇 1st place: Jakub Figura for his thesis: “Analysis of risks associated with generative artificial intelligence models from a legal perspective”
🥈 2nd place: Agnieszka Kaczmarczyk for her thesis: ‘Training artificial intelligence models and copyright infringement from the perspective of Polish law in the context of the first lawsuits brought before US courts’
🥉 3rd place (joint): Piotr Wołejsza for his paper: ‘Development of a method for creating teaching materials using generative artificial intelligence tools’
🥉 3rd place (joint): Maksymilian Sobotko for his paper: ‘Intellectual property protection in the field of Big Data (...)’
A huge round of applause is also due to all those who received awards and honourable mentions in the technical track! You can find the full list of winners and details of the winning entries on the organiser’s website.
📅 We will present the awards and certificates during the Competition Gala. We will also hear presentations of selected entries. The Gala will take place on 14 May 2026 at 6.00 pm in Warsaw.
We would like to thank Paweł Gora and the Quantum AI Foundation for organising the event, the members of the Jury: Dr Agnieszka Jankowska, Professor at the Warsaw University of Life Sciences (SGGW), Dr Urszula Soler, Professor at the Warsaw School of Economics (SGH), Dr Andrzej Sobczak, and Piotr Mieczkowski for their time, and to the other competition partners – Allegro, OVHcloud, Synerise and TCL Research Europe – for jointly supporting young talent.
