Lunches

Every week, different research areas get together for lunch with research talks. This is the natural language processing (NLP) group.

Stanford AI Lab's Outreach

Stanford AI4ALL is designed to expose high school students in underrepresented populations to the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Interdisciplinary research

The AI Lab brings together faculty and students from a variety of disciplines. This picture shows students from the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics working together to build a distributed conflict avoidance system for unmanned aircraft.

Welcome to the Stanford AI Lab! The Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (SAIL) has been a center of excellence for Artificial Intelligence research, teaching, theory, and practice since its founding in 1962. For more information, please download the pdf of our brochure.

Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) Seed Grants – Call for Proposals

The Stanford HAI Initiative will award up to 25 seed grants of up to $75,000 each. The call for proposals aims to support innovative and interdisciplinary seed research in Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence. Proposals should be for support of new, ambitious, and speculative ideas with the objective of getting initial results, and should be distinct from existing sponsored research. We encourage proposals that involve collaborations of faculty and students across different fields, with a preference for supporting AI-related research bridging two or more Departments and/or Schools and for the advancement of a human-centered focus. The deadline to apply is November 30th, 2018. For more information about the HAI Initiative, please visit the HAI Website, and for more information and to apply for the seed grants, please visit the seed funding website.
