Stanford AI100 releases 2026 report covering the scaling era and generative AI rise
TobyWalsh · x · 2026-11-11
The Stanford-led One Hundred Year Study on AI (AI100) has released its latest report, "AI Goes Mainstream: The Scaling Era and the Rise of Generative AI," covering 2021–2026. The project, tracing back to Eric Horvitz's 2008-09 AAAI Presidential Panel, convenes a study panel every five years to assess AI progress across technical, ethical, economic, and societal dimensions for a century.
Longitudinal studies are rare in AI: instead of a snapshot, the century-long view distinguishes lasting shifts from passing trends, with each report serving as a time capsule for future generations.
