About Us

We are a club of MIT and Harvard students who are interested in artificial intelligence and machine learning. Beginners and interested individuals with any level of knowledge are welcome! We use an inclusive definition of the word women, and the purpose of the Women in Artificial Intelligence group is to provide a supportive community for cisgender women, transgender women, genderqueer women and individuals, and non-binary individuals pursuing studies or research in AI and machine learning at MIT and Harvard.
