AI+Science: Accelerating Discovery is an interdisciplinary conference bringing together researchers across physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology, neuroscience, and more to examine how AI is reshaping scientific discovery.
The AI Index, currently in its ninth year, tracks, collates, distills, and visualizes data relating to artificial intelligence.

The possibility that AI will automate most cognitive labor is worth taking seriously. How should we adapt to this transformation? I start from the perspective, articulated in the essay “AI as normal technology”, that the true bottlenecks lie downstream of capabilities and that AI’s impacts will unfold gradually over decades. If this is true, there are major gaps in our current evidence infrastructure, because it over-emphasizes the capability layer.

Experts will separate hype from reality, spotlighting where AI is already enabling genuine breakthroughs and where its limits and risks remain.
Centered on the essential role of scientists in this new era, the conference will explore both near-term advances and future possibilities, along with the unique challenges of applying AI in scientific work. Above all, it focuses on elevating human understanding: what people understand, not what AI understands.
This conference is ideal for scientists, engineers, and research leaders across academia, industry, and government who want a clear, interdisciplinary view of where AI is genuinely accelerating discovery, and what it means for scientific practice.
This year's conference will feature keynotes, panel discussions, and opportunities to connect with peers. Watch this space for more details regarding agenda and speaker lineup as we approach the event date.
