GRD 2025


Each November 30th, Generative Revolution Day, an event full of amazing speakers, will reinvigorate the dialogue about Generative AI - and the revolution it has already caused. The top leaders from AI industry, science and entertainment discuss the most crucial benefits and risks, potential and flaws, debating whether at the end of the day are we humans better off with generative AI or not.

This year, we are contrasting views of tech luminaries on important issues, in a modern variation on Oxford debate. You will be able to hear arguments for and against theses regarding AI and society, and decide which are more plausible, by voting and adding your thoughts.

You, again, can expect an amazing line of speakers - we invite you to the 2025 edition!

generative revolution day

The world was never the same after November 30th 2022. With the public launch of ChatGPT, the first conversational AI model, generative artificial intelligence became accessible through simple dialogue.

For the first time, anyone could harness the power of AI using natural language alone - no code, no technical expertise, just conversation. This amazingly simple yet revolutionary form of interaction, sent ripples across the globe, marking the dawn of a new era: the human+AI era, co-crafting the future of technology and creativity.

Generative AI empowers humans by enhancing their ability to create, analyze, understand, and solve problems in ways once unimaginable. Since then, an endless variety of generative AI applications - spanning business, healthcare, social impact, and others - have been successfully developed to change our lives for the better.

Generative Revolution Day unites innovators, creators, and critics to celebrate, further accelerate and review wide adoption of generative AI.

Campus institute

The Human+AI Institute, launched by CampusAI, is dedicated to co-crafting a future with AI that empowers, assists, and guides humans—while never seeking to replace, deceive, or fake them. As part of CampusAI's initiative to facilitate dialogue and raise awareness about generative AI technology, the institute plays a crucial role in navigating its smooth adoption. Our mission is to provide data, tools, and critical insights into the broad spectrum of human+AI collaboration, benefiting society, innovators, researchers, and market players in the AI industry.

We focus on two key areas

_Preparing Humans for AI

Every change needs attention and care. Driven by the belief in the great potential of the emerging Human+AI collaboration we emphasize education, reskilling, rising awareness about potential risks, best practices, debunking myths a nd inspiration through real-world applications. We help navigate the new paradigmthrough deep analysis of the current state of human skills, societal expectations, and AI readiness.

_Aligning AI with Humans

Through scientific research and reliable reports, as well as by benchmarking, refining, and creating new datasets and tools, we aim to guide AI system providers in the right direction - one that aligns with human values, cognitive capacities, and physical needs, while addressing biases and ethical concerns, ultimately helping to bring out the best in Human+AI collaboration.
