About the Summit

AI and Human Intelligence in Education is a broad and distinctive theme for the inaugural Cambridge AI in Education Summit 2026. It creates space to explore learning, assessment, cognition, judgment, emerging technologies, trust, and responsible AI, while keeping the central focus on education's role in developing human capability. The summit will bring together perspectives from education, assessment, research, technology, policy, and publishing to examine how AI is reshaping teaching, learning, knowledge, evidence, and human development. It will consider both the opportunities of AI and the risks posed by technologies that can personalise, persuade, predict, generate, assess, and mediate human thought.
