Actionable insights into the rapidly evolving AI landscape and its impact on business and society — since 2017.
Applying technology
for real-world impact
Since 2017, the MIT AI Conference has brought together the brightest minds in artificial intelligence — cutting through hype to deliver actionable insights into the rapidly evolving AI landscape and its impact on business and society.
Organized entirely by volunteers from the MIT Alumni Startup Network, the conference is built on a single principle: Mens et Manus — mind and hand. Every session, workshop, and hackathon is designed to connect research to practice.
