We stand at a remarkable juncture, a moment historians may one day mark as a pivotal turning point. The whispers and predictions of previous years have crescendoed into an undeniable reality. As we convene for the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Information Technology (IAIT) 2026, proudly organized by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society (CIS) Thailand Chapter and King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), the era of pervasive artificial intelligence is no longer a prospect but our lived experience. AI has transcended the confines of specialized domains, integrating itself into the very fabric of our existence, reshaping industries, redefining societal norms, and transforming the contours of our daily lives. In this transformative age, IAIT 2026 is poised to be more than just a conference; it is a crucial gathering point, a global crucible for understanding and shaping this profound shift.
Building upon a vibrant legacy of fostering dialogue, catalysing innovation, and bridging the gap between theory and application – a legacy proudly carried forward from impactful gatherings like IAIT 2023 and its predecessors – our mission for IAIT 2026, under the esteemed guidance of our organizers, is not only steadfast but amplified by the urgency and immense opportunity of this unique moment. We remain fiercely dedicated to providing a premier, truly international forum where the world's brightest minds converge. This is where visionary researchers, pioneering practitioners, insightful academics, and transformative industry leaders come together not just to present, but to debate, to challenge, and to co-create. IAIT is the critical arena for dissecting the most recent breakthroughs, anticipating emergent trends, confronting the complex practical and ethical challenges, and forging the transformative solutions that lie at the dynamic, ever-evolving intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Information Technology.
For IAIT 2026, as we navigate this landscape of deeply integrated intelligence, we are excited to embrace the theme:
"AI Everywhere: Navigating the New Intelligent Landscape – From Potential to Pervasive Impact"
This theme reflects the established reality of 2026, where AI is no longer confined to research labs or niche applications. Instead, it is deeply embedded in our daily lives, industries, and societal structures. IAIT 2026 will delve into how we can harness this pervasive intelligence responsibly, ethically, and effectively. We will explore:
Moving beyond hype to real-world, scalable, and impactful deployments.
Designing synergistic systems where human ingenuity is augmented by AI capabilities.
Ensuring AI's development and deployment are aligned with human values and societal good.
Showcasing breakthroughs across diverse sectors, from healthcare and education to sustainability and creative industries.
How information technology infrastructures and practices are evolving to support and leverage ubiquitous AI.
Join us at IAIT 2026 for an engaging program featuring inspiring keynote speeches from world-renowned experts, cutting-edge research paper presentations, interactive workshops, and unparalleled networking opportunities. Together, let's explore the frontiers of AI and IT, share groundbreaking insights, and collectively shape the future of our increasingly intelligent world.
We look forward to welcoming you to an intellectually stimulating and collaborative IAIT 2026!
