AGI Conference San Francisco 2026

An international forum exploring artificial general intelligence research, safety, consciousness and the future of human-level AI systems.

The 19th Annual Conference on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI-26) runs July 27-30 at San Francisco State University (SFSU). The event serves as an international forum for research and discussion on the original goal of the AI field — the creation of thinking machines with general intelligence at the human level.
