Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI)

Stanford HAI faculty and fellows joined leaders from government, international organizations, and academia in Paris this month for the #AIActionSummit to tackle how AI can prioritize public interest. HAI Co-Director Fei-Fei Li gave the summit keynote address — emphasizing the need for human-centered AI governed by science-based, pragmatic policies — while senior fellows Erik Brynjolfsson and Rob Reich, HAI Executive Director Russell Wald, and HAI Policy Fellow Riana Pfefferkorn joined additional summit week events and discussions.

And that’s a wrap on the third annual AI+Education Summit! Across four expert panels, student poster sessions, and two rounds of speed talks, a few key themes emerged: 💡AI tools can support, but not replace, relationships between educators and students. 💡AI can go beyond making processes more efficient and instead augment human creativity and innovation. 💡Educators, researchers, students, and policymakers all need to be involved in the design and implementation of AI tools. 💡 AI models should be designed with all learners in mind in order not to exacerbate inequities. A huge thank you to Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) and to all of the speakers and attendees who brought their passion and insight to these conversations. A bright future for education using ethical, human-centered AI is in reach.

What skills should schools prioritize to prepare students for an AI-infused world? This was a question posed to a panel of Stanford researchers at the AI+Education Summit, co-hosted with the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). Their answers: 💭 Healthy skepticism (Victor Lee, associate professor at Stanford University Graduate School of Education and faculty lead for AI+Education at the Accelerator) 🧑🏫 Learning how to learn (Emma Brunskill, associate professor of computer science and faculty affiliate of the Accelerator) 📚 Understanding the sources of information (Michael Frank, professor of human biology and linguistics) What would you say? 📸 Jeanina Matias

Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) professor Erik Brynjolfsson explains how the impacts of #AI on automation, #productivity and societies could be better understood.

How disruptive is #DeepSeek? Stanford HAI Senior Fellow Russ Altman argues that its development offers important lessons for the academic community, while also raising critical questions regarding data access, specialized models, and AI system evaluation. https://lnkd.in/gg8K2dRA

Today is the 2025 AI+Education Summit, a collaboration between Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) and my team at the Stanford Accelerator for Learning. It is our 3rd AI+Education Summit, and this year will be centered around three big questions: 1. What is the future of learning we aspire to? 2. What makes us uniquely human? How do we center humanity in both our learning and AI ecosystems? 3. How can research best evolve to support a bright future of learning? Two big themes: 1. The research imperative on understanding what works, for whom, in what context as technology rapidly infiltrates our schools and learning environments 2. The future is already here: embodied AI, agentic structures, neurotech, quantum. Videos of the event will be available next week for those unable to attend today. Stanford Accelerator for Learning 🚀

Good morning from the third annual AI+Education Summit! Today we’re bringing policymakers, leading researchers, and K-12 educators to one big conversation: what does it look like to build a thriving learning ecosystem that incorporates human-centered AI technology? Here to imagine with us is the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). Stay tuned for insights on the new applications of AI in education under development, plus discussion on how to ensure an ethical, equitable, and responsible AI environment as we move forward in uncharted waters. 📸 Jeanina Matias
