UW–Madison designates 2026 as the ‘Year of AI Readiness and Competency’
UW–Madison will designate 2026 as the “Year of AI Readiness and Competency” in a coordinated, campuswide effort to ensure that students, faculty, and staff are prepared to use artificial intelligence thoughtfully, responsibly, and in service to the Wisconsin Idea. The effort will focus on moving toward broad institutional readiness, placing people, judgment, and institutional guardrails at the center.
