The 2nd International Conference on AI Scientists
ICAIS 2026
October 2026 | Zhongguancun Academy, Beijing, China
Advancing the frontiers of AI-driven scientific discovery - from AI for Science to Science by AI
About ICAIS
The International Conference on AI Scientists (ICAIS) is a pioneering venue dedicated to exploring the frontier where artificial intelligence meets scientific discovery. Following the highly successful inaugural ICAIS 2025, which brought together six Nobel Laureates and leading researchers from around the world, ICAIS 2026 continues to push the boundaries of what AI can achieve in science and what science can achieve through AI.
ICAIS is not just another academic conference. We are building a platform designed for the AI era - one that embraces both the science about AI and the science done by AI. We welcome rigorous research on AI systems that accelerate or automate scientific discovery, as well as groundbreaking scientific work that was substantially enabled or generated by AI systems.
