Cambridge AI Forum — AI for humanity in Cambridge, MA
Cambridge AI Forum is based in Cambridge, Massachusetts (USA) and is not affiliated with the University of Cambridge (UK).
Cambridge AI Forum is an independent forum in Cambridge, Massachusetts for people who care how artificial intelligence changes cities, work, wellbeing and public life. It is for researchers, practitioners, students and neighbors who want human-centered, responsible AI that serves the public good.
What we believe: open inquiry, public trust
We believe in the enduring power of open inquiry as an essential expression of a healthy society, and in our collective capacity to steward emerging intelligence through independent research, shared understanding, judgment and the public trust that responsible AI demands. We publish our findings, put AI to work for communities, and connect researchers, practitioners and neighbors.
