We are academic and industrial researchers, practitioners, software developers, end users, and students.
SIGAI is one of the oldest special interest groups in the ACM. SIGAI, then SIGART, started in 1966, publishing the SIGART Newletter that later became the SIGART Bulletin and Intelligence Magazine. Today, SIGAI is an active group with more than one thousand members from academia and industry throughout the world.
AI is increasingly an interdisciplinary area, and your membership supports these goals.
Both members and non-members are welcome to join our mailing list to receive timely announcements of interest to researchers and practitioners.
The mission of the ACM Special Interest Group on Artificial Intelligence (ACM SIGAI) is to promote and support the growth and application of artificial intelligence (AI) principles and techniques throughout computing. ACM SIGAI is made up of and serves three primary communities: academic educators and researchers, professional practitioners, and students. We serve as technical experts both to the internal community of the ACM as well as to external entities interested in AI. We advance our mission through concrete activities, including:
-
- Sponsoring or co-sponsoring high-quality AI-related conferences;
- Recognizing achievements of academic, professional and student members through major annual awards;
- Publishing a quarterly newsletter (AI Matters) in the ACM Digital Library as well as maintaining a blog on AI matters of interest to the community;
- Providing scholarships to student members to attend conferences;
- Funding, developing, and promoting AI education, publications and public outreach activities both within the AI community and beyond.
Are you a student?
Are you a conference organizer?
By joining ACM:SIGAI both students and professional members receive the same benifits:
-
- access in the ACM Digital Library to the Proceedings of all the SIGAI sponsored conferences and many in-cooperation conferences;
- discounts on registration at SIGAI sponsored conferences;
- networking and leadership opportunities through SIGAI activities, student and professional chapter meetings, and the ACM student website;
- opportunities for support to attend conferences sponsored by SIGAI to present a paper. Contact the conference chair for details;
- mentoring for PhD students by senior researchers at some conferences sponsored by SIGAI and at the AAAI/SIGAI Doctoral Consortium

Announcements & Events
Shlomo Zilberstein (2025 Autonomous Agents Research Award)
The selection committee for the ACM/SIGAI Autonomous Agents Research Award is pleased to announce that Professor Shlomo Zilberstein is the recipient of the 2025 award. Shlomo Zilberstein is Professor of Computer Science and former Associate Dean of Research at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. His work established the field of decentralized Markov Decision Processes (DEC-MDPs), laying the groundwork for decision-theoretic planning in multi-agent systems and multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL). These contributions have become a cornerstone of multi-agent decision-making, influencing researchers and practitioners alike. A Fellow of AAAI and the ACM, Professor Zilberstein has received numerous awards, including the UMass Chancellor’s Medal, the IFAAMAS Influential Paper Award, and the AAAI Distinguished Service Award.
Catholijn Jonker (2024 Autonomous Agents Research Award)
The selection committee for the ACM/SIGAI Autonomous Agents Research Award is pleased to announce that Professor Catholijn Jonker is the recipient of the 2024 award. Professor Catholijn Jonker is full professor of Interactive Intelligence at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, and Computer Science of the Delft University of Technology. Professor Jonker is a leader in the field of human-machine interaction, in particular regarding modeling the cognitive processes and concepts involved in negotiation and teamwork. Professor Jonker initiated the Automated Negotiating Agents Competition at AAMAS and IJCAI. She has also contributed to other research domains such as integrating interactive intelligence for hybrid intelligent systems. She is also very active in advancing research into value-sensitive and responsible AI. She is very much involved in promoting women in academic positions. She chaired the Network of Female Professors. She is a role model for many young researchers. Her research is highly visible and praised. Professor Jonker received numerous awards. She was the past President of IFAAMAS.
