About Us
Day of AI is a program developed at MIT RAISE in partnership with the i2 Learning Foundation.
MIT RAISE (Responsible AI for Social Empowerment and Education) is an initiative based in the MIT Media Lab, working jointly with the MIT Schwarzman College of Computing and MIT Open Learning to advance AI education and research. Its mission is to empower everyone to use AI thoughtfully and with positive impact.
The i2 Learning Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to K-12 education, established in 2012 to prepare students for the future. It began by bringing hands-on STEM programs to middle schools and, with the launch of Day of AI in 2021, has expanded to advance AI literacy programs nationwide.
