This event was held January 2-5, 2015 in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

We organized our first conference, The Future of AI: Opportunities and Challenges. This conference brought together the world’s leading AI builders from academia and industry to engage with each other and experts in economics, law and ethics. The goal was to identify promising research directions that can help maximize the future benefits of AI while avoiding pitfalls. To facilitate candid and constructive discussions, there was no media present and Chatham House Rules: nobody’s talks or statements will be shared without their permission.

Most of the speakers have posted their talks. You’ll find a list of participants and their bios here.
