Come be part of UF's inaugural AI Days where students, faculty and staff are invited to participate in immersive events dedicated to all things AI.
From competitions designed to bring students’ ideas to life...to engaging panels discussing AI and data science, AI Days will capture how the University of Florida is building an AI University. See your fellow students win over $50,000 in money prizes!
UF students, faculty and staff are invited to join the audience on both days of events including Gator Tank and Gator Hack.
Some of UF's brightest entrepreneurial students have signed up to pitch their best ideas at Gator Tank.
Twenty-eight teams have registered, representing seven colleges and 15 majors.
