Discover the past, present, and future of Artificial Intelligence in this interactive workshop. Begin with a multimedia introduction and Q&A, tracing AI’s early origins and highlighting today’s innovations in the Bay Area. Then explore hands-on activity stations designed for all ages: build and program an educational robot, engage with advanced robotics projects from local students and startups, and experience demonstrations of cutting-edge agentic and physical AI robots—staffed by senior assistants from top universities, including UC Berkeley, CSU and other excellent universities. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn, create, and engage with the latest in AI robotics.

This program is hosted jointly by Supertech FT (STFT) and the Institute of Responsible AI Robotics (IRAIR). Both organizations work on promoting and servicing the education and training of Physical AI and AI robotics professionals. IRAIR serves international communities.
