We’re pleased to announce that we will be giving an introduction to science communication for AI researchers at AAAI this year. This will be held on Wednesday 26 February from 13:00. If you are attending the conference and fancy finding out how you can communicate your research to a general audience in different formats, then please do join us.

Following an hour-long introductory talk, there will be an optional, open, drop-in session where you can try out some of the things you learnt in the course, ask any sci-comm questions, and chat about your ideas and stories.

Timetable

  • 13:00 – 14:00 Talk: science communication for AI researchers – introductory training
  • 14:00 – 15:00 Open drop-in session for one-on-one support

Location

Level 100, East Building, Room 111A, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Philadelphia

Presenters

Professor Michael Littman, Brown University

About the session

Science communication is essential. It helps demystify AI for a broad range of people including policy makers, business leaders, and the public. As a researcher, mastering this skill can not only enhance your communication abilities but also expand your network and increase the visibility and impact of your work.

In this brief tutorial, we will teach you how to clearly and concisely explain your research to non-specialists. You’ll learn how to avoid hype, how to find suitable images to illustrate your work, and where to start with social media.

What we’ll cover

  • Why science communication matters
  • Different ways to do science communication
  • Working with media
  • Communicating via social media
  • Finding your story
  • Turning your story into a blog post
  • How to find and use suitable images
  • How to avoid hype in your communication
  • Unconventional ways to do science communication
