What is AI?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the field of computer science that focuses on creating systems that perform tasks that would typically require “human intelligence” or adaptability. Some of these tasks might include things like recognizing images, understanding language, making complex decisions, or learning from experience.
Much of today’s AI is narrow AI, meaning it’s designed to excel at a specific task, such as a voice assistant, a recommendation system, or a chess engine. In the AI Club, you will typically design and create systems that fall under this category.
The ultimate goal of AI research is general AI. These systems are able to think, adapt, and solve problems across a wide range of areas without specifically being trained on any one particular area. While we’re not there yet, AI has already shaped much of our daily lives, and we can’t wait to have you explore the field with us!

What AI is and isn't
“Only one percent of interesting things have been invented yet… I believe all of us are insanely creative… [AI] will empower us to turn creativity into action.” -Educator and Entrepreneur Sebastian Thrun

Current AI News
- What's shaping frontier AI in 2026? Find out in London, May 21st
On May 21st, the Innodata GenAI Summit convenes in London for a single day of rigorous, practitioner-led exchange on the challenges defining frontier AI in 2026. Here is what the agenda covers, who is in the room, and why it's a must for AI professionals...
- The rise of agent experience (AX)
AI agents are becoming active participants in commerce, logistics, and enterprise systems. This shift is creating demand for a new product layer built for machines rather than humans, where negotiation, semantic visibility, and autonomous execution matter as much as traditional UX.
- How observability keeps AI systems reliable at scale
Turning observability context into intelligent action
- Is this the rise of the AI scientist?
Synthetic task scaling introduces a new training approach where AI agents learn through experience, closing the gap between knowledge and execution. Are you ready for the rise of the AI scientist?
