Informatics Institute and UF’s AI Initiative

AI Initiative

The Informatics Institute is proud to contribute to the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Initiative at the University of Florida.

Artificial Intelligence, augmented reality, machine learning and other emerging tools are revolutionizing the way we live. UF launched the AI Initiative to advance and apply studies across the university enterprise as a fundamental pillar of our academic pursuits. This initiative will train our graduates for an AI-enabled world through new university-wide curricula. In addition, UF anticipates enhancing our research computing with some of the nation’s most advanced AI machinery. Together with our own home-grown supercomputer, HiPerGator 3.0, we will have some of the very best and fastest supercomputer resources in U.S. higher education.

UF’s official Artificial Intelligence website provides information about AI courses, certificates, activities, initiatives, news, and more.
