In partnership with the CaRCC network, Katie Antypas, office director in the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure, will present on the recently announced National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) pilot project.

NAIRR envisions “a shared national research infrastructure for responsible discovery and innovation in AI.” The effort is led by the NSF and includes 10 additional federal agencies and 25 non-governmental partner organizations. The pilot assembles and provides access to technologies and tools to enable U.S. research and education including computational, data, software, modeling, and user support resources. NAIRR “aims to ensure that AI resources and tools are accessible to the broad research and education communities in a manner that advances trustworthy AI and protects privacy, civil rights and civil liberties.” 
 
Alongside the webinar, survey responses are requested from US researchers, educators, and students, aiming to learn your use cases for the NAIRR Pilot, your challenges using AI resources, and other perspectives. The survey deadline has been extended to March 31, 2024.
