Why You Should Attend AI Days 2026

For four years, the AI2 Center has hosted AI Days on the UF campus to bring together hundreds of bright minds from various disciplines to discuss the future of artificial intelligence in the classroom and research labs. Ideas ignite, innovation thrives, and AI takes center stage. In 2025, more than 90 interdisciplinary teams went head-to-head in our student competitions: Gator Tank, Gator Hack, and Gator Create. More than 800 participants joined sessions and speaker events to explore how AI is transforming every discipline. At this event, we also recognized the remarkable AI faculty talent we have at UF. We hope to see you in October 2026 for the Fifth Annual AI Days Events.
