In this project, UC Davis and Duke University organizing a series of annual leadership summits and constructing a virtual organization. These mutually supporting activities support the National Artificial Intelligence (AI) Research Institutes Program and its funding agencies by facilitating coordination, collaboration, and community-building across academia, government, and industry. The meetings and supporting organization aim to broaden the AI research community into a richly connected network of institutes and collaborators. These efforts serve the community of researchers funded by the AI Institutes program by establishing a collection point and collaboration platform enabling sharing of resources, programs, expertise, and best practices. The project also seeks to enhance coordination and dissemination between AI Institutes and the broader public by making the AI Institutes programs and personnel more accessible, disseminating institute outcomes, and promotion of AI Institute activities of interest to the broader community. The combined effect of leadership summits and a public-facing virtual organization will connect many researchers across a large and far reaching multisector national strategic AI initiative. These activities are central to achieving and transitioning AI innovations and creating a future AI-ready workforce beyond the confines of individual institute efforts and contribute significantly to U.S. leadership in AI.Leadership summits are in the style of a PI meeting, but more aptly named to include institute key personnel more broadly. These meetings and the longer term coordination and collaboration among AI Institutes and the broader community are to be enabled by the establishment of a collaborative content management system for the sharing and dissemination of content and a public-facing web portal for access and broader engagement. All AI Institutes share the overarching goals to advance research in AI, nurture the next generation of talent, and serve as nexus points for collaborative efforts. The annual meetings of key personnel and the enduring virtual organization are aimed at creating effective and lasting collaborative connections. Initial development of the virtual organization and its supporting portal focuses on content that informs the public and directs interested collaborators to the right institute personnel, promotes institute activities, outcomes, and events, and disseminates resources and opportunities arising from the institutes. Annual leadership summits provide the ideal opportunity for continuous evaluation and enhancement of these community building efforts.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

在这个项目中，加州大学戴维斯分校和杜克大学组织了一系列年度领导峰会并建立虚拟组织。这些相互支持的活动通过促进学术界，政府和行业的协调，合作和社区建设，支持国家人工智能（AI）研究机构计划及其资助机构。会议和支持组织旨在将AI研究社区扩展到富有联系的机构和合作者网络。这些努力通过建立一个收集点和协作平台，为资源，计划，专业知识和最佳实践共享收集点和协作平台，为由AI Institutes计划提供资金的研究人员社区。该项目还旨在通过使AI机构的计划和人员更容易获得AI机构和更广泛的公众之间的协调和传播，并促进AI研究所感兴趣的活动为更广泛的社区促进。领导峰会和面向公共的虚拟组织的综合效果将连接许多大型和遥远的多部门国家战略AI计划。这些活动对于实现和过渡AI创新并创造了一个未来的AI-Ready劳动力，超出了个人研究所的范围，并为美国的领导力做出了重大贡献。领导峰会是PI会议的风格，但更恰当地命名为包括Institute Institute关键人员。这些会议以及AI机构和更广泛的社区之间的长期协调和协作，可以通过建立一个协作内容管理系统来共享和传播内容的协作内容管理系统，以及用于访问和更广泛参与度的公共面向公共网站。所有人工智能机构都共享了进步AI研究，培养下一代人才的总体目标，并作为协作努力的Nexus积分。关键人员和持久虚拟组织的年度会议旨在建立有效和持久的协作联系。虚拟组织及其支持门户的初步发展集中在为公众提供信息的内容上，并将有兴趣的合作者指导到合适的研究所人员，促进研究所的活动，成果和活动，并传播由研究所引起的资源和机会。年度领导峰会为连续评估和增强这些社区建设努力提供了理想的机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并且使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
