AI Forum Americas 2026 - INST

Everything humans have achieved has been built on our intelligence. Today, artificial intelligence (AI) can rival and surpass human intelligence in various tasks. This technology offers immense opportunities and potential risks.

As a leading business school, INSEAD is uniquely positioned to lead discussions on the co-existence of human and machine intelligence, and AI's impact on people, businesses, and society.

Based on this vision, INSEAD is establishing a Human and Machine Intelligence Institute (HUMII). Our vision is for the Institute to:

Create knowledge: As a research think tank, HUMII will bring together scientific and humanistic fields related to human and artificial intelligence.

Build skills: We will equip all INSEAD graduates the essential skills to lead, innovate, and build in the age of intelligence.

Protect human agency: We will apply our know-how to bridge knowledge gaps, to preserve cultural and linguistic identities, to enhance life and work.

To support the vision of HUMII, we have organised the INSEAD AI Forums 2026 series around the world, with the latest session, the AI Forum Americas edition, taking place at the San Francisco Hub for Business Innovation on September 18 and 19.

Ticket info:

• Sept 18 is an alumni-led community day, featuring practical workshops and discussions
• Sept 19 is the AI Forum, SF Edition, produced by INSEAD HUMII, featuring faculty and other guest speakers

Each event will bring together dignitaries, our faculty, industry experts, alumni, and students.

Please save the dates, September 18 and September 19 to be part of these important conversations around the future of AI.
