The 2021 AI Index Report has been published. Compiled by the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), it tracks, summarises and visualises data relating to artificial intelligence.

The aim of the report is to provide unbiased, rigorously vetted, and globally sourced data for policymakers, researchers, executives, journalists, and the general public to develop intuitions about the complex field of AI.

The report comprises seven chapters covering the following topics:

  1. Research and development
  2. Technical performance
  3. The economy
  4. AI education
  5. Ethical challenges of AI applications
  6. Diversity in AI
  7. AI policy and national strategies
