The U.S. National Science Foundation has invested in artificial intelligence research since the early 1960s, setting the technical and conceptual foundations driving today’s AI innovations.
AI-driven discoveries and technologies are transforming Americans’ daily lives and promising practical solutions to global challenges, from food production and supply chains to healthcare and education.
As a major federal funder of AI research, NSF is making investments that will catalyze new discoveries, translate this knowledge into the hands of the American enterprise and build the workforce needed to drive U.S. global leadership and economic competitiveness.
