Last year, MIT President Sally Kornbluth and Provost Cynthia Barnhart launched an initiative to compile and publish proposals on the subject of generative artificial intelligence (AI). They requested submissions of papers detailing effective roadmaps, policy recommendations, and calls for action to further develop and understand the field. The appeal for the first round of papers generated…

Last year, MIT President Sally Kornbluth and Provost Cynthia Barnhart encouraged academics to submit papers outlining roadmaps, policy recommendations, and calls to action in the area of generative AI. This generated a strong response, with 75 submissions being made. 27 of these were selected to receive seed funding. Due to the high interest and quality of…

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has announced its plan to fund 16 research proposals dedicated to exploring the potential of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI). The funding process began last summer when MIT President Sally Kornbluth and Provost Cynthia Barnhart invited research papers that could provide robust policy guidelines, efficient roadmaps, and calls to action…

In response to a call from MIT President Sally Kornbluth and Provost Cynthia Barnhart, researchers have submitted 75 proposals addressing the use of generative AI. Due to the overwhelming response, a second call was issued, with 53 submissions. A selected 27 from the initial call, and 16 from the second have been granted seed funding.…
