The International Conference on AI Research (ICAIR) is an opportunity for academics, practitioners, and consultants from around the world who are involved in the study, management and development of artificial intelligence related issues in education, in business or in the public sector to publish and present their research. There are several strong strands of research and interest that are developing in the area including the consequences of AI and robotics on work and society, the governance of AI, risks and benefits of AI, ethical dilemmas related to AI, the employment of Chatbots and GenAI. We also welcome applications of AI to solving some of the World’s global challenges such as to improve the health and wellbeing of children and young people in growing urban environments around the world; to help civilisation migrate from hydrocarbons to non-fossil sources of energy and other activities to mitigate the climate crisis; to contribute to the continued eradication of extreme poverty in the World.
