AGI-26 Conference

The AGI Conference Series is the global pinnacle of AGI research. Held annually for 19 years, the AGI Conference is the longest-running conference series devoted wholly to human-level general intelligence and beyond. The series is built on three pillars: AGI-26 brings together the foundational thinkers who shaped artificial general intelligence: the people who gave the field its vocabulary, its core debates, and its most credible paths forward. 2026 confirmed speakers include: Ben Goertzel, Karl J. Friston, Gary Marcus, Neil Gershenfeld, Michael Levin, Hananel Hazan, Alexander Ororbia, Faezeh Habibi, Reza Rassool, Josef Urban, and Greg Meredith. Some of our past speakers include: Yoshua Bengio, Jürgen Schmidhuber, Peter Norvig, Richard Sutton, François Chollet, Christof Koch, Michael Levin, and many more. This is a gathering of frameworks, hard-won viewpoints, and intellectual force. For one week in July, San Francisco becomes the center of the conversation that matters most for the future of intelligence. This year we’re awarding the Kurzweil Prize (best AGI idea), the AGI Society Prize (measurable progress), Springer’s best paper award, and others - because the best work deserves spotlight. Whether you’re building agents, wrestling with alignment, drawing from biology, or just trying to track how fast the frontier is actually moving, AGI-26 is where those conversations happen in one room. If you care about where this field is really headed, and want to help shape it with rigor and responsibility, this is the week that matters. See you in San Francisco (or online) this July.
