Absolutely Interdisciplinary – Schwartz Reisman Institute for Technology & Society

Event Overlay

The Schwartz Reisman Institute’s annual academic conference Absolutely Interdisciplinary will explore interdisciplinary approaches to AI governance, risk and safety on May 29, 2025, at U of T’s Schwartz Reisman Innovation Campus.

Absolutely Interdisciplinary convenes leading thinkers from a rich variety of fields to engage in conversations that encourage innovation and inspire new insights.

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems are evolving at an extraordinary pace, holding the potential to transform societies, economies, and systems in profound ways. Yet, as the possibilities expand, so do the challenges—and many of these cannot be solved by technical innovation alone.

The fifth annual Absolutely Interdisciplinary conference will unite researchers, students, and professionals across disciplines to explore ideas, spark new insights, and shape research agendas.
