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.
