UK AI Research Symposium: A Festival Of Ideas

UK AI Research Symposium (UKAIRS) invites contributions from researchers from a diversity of disciplines including computer science, engineering, social sciences and humanities, with the goal of shaping the UK’s research priorities, identifying cross-fertilisation opportunities, and informing the narrative around the challenges to delivering AI that benefits society and the economy.  UKAIRS will invite research contributions through research papers, posters, and demos. The Symposium will be held in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne at Northumbria University campus.

Note: As this is the first edition of the symposium (with a full conference to follow in 2026), and to help manage demand, contributions are only invited from researchers, students, and practitioners directly funded by a UKRI project or programme (including pump-priming projects and impact accelerator awards) in the last 3 years (June 2022).  We particularly encourage contributions from early career researchers.  Contributions can be papers already published at other venues, provocations, demos, posters, and abstracts (see formats here).
