  • Assessing and imagining the impact of Generative AI on Science

    Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y. Ithaca, New York

    Is generative AI transforming the scientific enterprise—and if so, how? What enduring effects will these changes have, particularly at a moment when scientific inquiry is more essential than ever for addressing global challenges? And how can scientists and science policymakers best prepare for—and shape—these transformations? This four-day symposium takes these questions head-on through a sequence of talks, public panels, and discussions, covering topics including

  • Inclusive by Design: Building the Future of AI

    Cornell Tech campus 2 W Loop Rd, New York, NY, United States

    Join us for an inspiring, high-impact, event featuring distinguished Cornell alumni and faculty, leading corporate partners, dynamic and thought-provoking panel discussions, and a hands-on interactive workshop. Connect with industry experts, expand your network, and gain real-world insights in an engaging, collaborative environment.

  • Alignment and Artificial General Intelligence

    Goldwin Smith Hall 132

    A Humanities Lab roundtable with Nina Beguš (Berkeley), Laurent Dubreuil (Cornell), and W. Starr (Cornell), moderated by Jacob Matthews (Cornell). This event is co-sponsored by the Cornell AI Initiative, and the French Studies Program.

  • Community-Centered AI

    Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y. Ithaca, New York

    Bringing together researchers, practitioners, and community members, the three-day convening will tackle AI's core problem – its massive carbon footprint, displacement of local expertise, and violations of community consent – through collaborative workshops, participatory algorithm auditing, and solution-generating discussions.

  • AI-MI Annual Meeting

    Members of the NSF AI Materials Institute will convene for the AI-MI Annual Meeting, a two-day, in-person meeting of the NSF AI Materials Institute community. The meeting will feature research updates across the institute, student and trainee spotlights, focused discussions on shared challenges and opportunities, and dedicated time for networking and collaboration. We welcome faculty, staff and students to connect, align on priorities, and accelerate progress toward AI-enabled materials discovery.

  • Data Science to Build Resilience and Improve Humanitarian Response

    Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y. Ithaca, New York

    By connecting philanthropies and the private sector with Cornell expertise across computer, information, natural and social sciences, the summit aims to spark new research, collaborations, and funding pathways that bring cutting-edge data tools into real-world humanitarian decision-making.

  • Building Benchmarks for AI-Driven Veterinary Innovation

    Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y. Ithaca, New York

    This summit will bring together experts from veterinary medicine, computer science, ethics, and law to tackle the unique challenges of creating standardized, high-quality datasets tailored to veterinary needs.

  • Cornell Tech Summer Innovation Intensives
