About AI What's On
AI What's On is a curated, ad-free calendar of artificial-intelligence and robotics events worldwide — conferences, summits, hackathons, expos, workshops and online talks, all in one place. Every listing is checked by hand against the organiser's own site, so the dates, cities and links are real: no ad-stuffed listicles, no predatory-mill "conferences".
Major worldwide conferences lead the page; below them is the full run of upcoming events across every continent and format. Browse by type, region or topic, filter to free or online events, and open any listing for the full brief. The directory carries no ads and no trackers — it exists purely to make the year's AI events findable. Running one we've missed? You can add it free.
