Walk into AI

A series that brings humanities scholars into frontline AI settings.

The “Walk into AI” series brings leading Chinese humanities scholars into real settings at the forefront of artificial intelligence. Through immersive encounters and dialogue across fields, it seeks to sharpen awareness of the changes unfolding where technology, society, and the humanities meet.

Participants work together to develop questions that can sustain further inquiry and to explore interdisciplinary approaches and possibilities for collaboration, contributing to humanities thought with global influence in the age of AI.

Bringing questions to the field

AI is reshaping knowledge, work, and everyday life, yet these changes cannot be understood through secondary material alone. The program brings participants from across the humanities into conversation with researchers, entrepreneurs, and practitioners, examining how technical capacity, social structures, and humanistic values affect one another.

From visits to sustained research

Walk into AI does not treat a single visit as its endpoint. It aims to develop enduring questions between technical practice and humanistic inquiry, exploring interdisciplinary research methods and collaboration that can respond to technological change as it unfolds.
