This commitment is in response to the recommendations of the Report of the Yale Task Force on Artificial Intelligence, a set of recommendations for coordinated action and University-wide artificial intelligence investments developed by a team of faculty members who already use AI in their departments. [University Provost Scott] Strobel wrote that this is a necessary step to fulfill the university’s mission “to improve the world and prepare the next generation of society’s great leaders and thinkers.”

Investment in AI is necessary for Yale to remain “competitive” as AI innovation expands at peer universities, according to Nisheeth Vishnoi, a professor of computer science and member of the task force.
