The Forty-First AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-27)
by Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI)
AAAI's flagship conference — CORE A*, and the week IAAI publishes deployed enterprise AI
About This Event
AAAI-27, the Forty-First AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, runs 16-23 February 2027 at the Palais des Congrès de Montréal. It is the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence's flagship meeting and one of the handful of venues where foundational AI results are first published, rated CORE A* and CCF A. The programme spans a Main Technical Track alongside special tracks on AI Alignment and AI for Social Impact, the co-located IAAI-27 applied-AI conference and EAAI-27 education symposium, plus a Journal Track, Doctoral Consortium, Student Abstract and Poster Program, New Faculty Highlights, the Senior Member Presentation Track, workshops, tutorials and competitions. AAAI-27 runs a two-phase review in which Phase 1 papers get two human reviews plus one AI-generated supplementary review that carries no decision weight; AAAI states it continues to rely solely on humans for paper decisions.

Topics & Focus Areas
Who Should Attend
- ✓AI and machine learning researchers
- ✓Applied research scientists
- ✓Head of AI Research
- ✓Machine learning engineers
- ✓PhD students and postdoctoral researchers
- ✓AI policy and governance researchers
- ✓University faculty
Why Attend
For an enterprise AI leader the draw is IAAI-27, which runs 18-20 February inside AAAI and exists specifically for deployed systems: production case studies with measured real-world benefits, emerging pilot-stage applications, and Deployment Insights papers where honest accounts of operational failure score favourably. That is material no vendor conference publishes. Attending puts you a year ahead of the papers your platform vendors will be citing, next to the research groups you would otherwise be cold-recruiting from, and the AI Alignment and AI for Social Impact tracks are where governance arguments arrive with evidence attached rather than opinion.
Event Features
- ✓Main Technical Track — 7 pages of content, 9 pages maximum including references
- ✓Special Track on AI Alignment
- ✓Special Track on AI for Social Impact
- ✓IAAI-27 Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence, 18-20 February — Deployed Applications, Emerging Applications and Deployment Insights
- ✓EAAI-27 Symposium on Educational Advances in AI, 21-23 February
- ✓Journal Track, Doctoral Consortium, Student Abstract and Poster Program, New Faculty Highlights and the Senior Member Presentation Track
- ✓Workshops, tutorials and competitions
- ✓Two-phase review with an author feedback window and metareviews
What Makes This Unique
- ★Rated CORE A* and CCF A — among the most selective publication venues in artificial intelligence
- ★IAAI-27 runs inside it, and is a rare peer-reviewed venue for *deployed* industrial AI: production systems with measured benefits, and Deployment Insights papers that explicitly reward honest accounts of what went wrong
- ★Two-phase review with an AI-generated supplementary review that is explicitly non-decisional — AAAI states humans alone make the call
- ★Three co-located conferences (AAAI-27, IAAI-27, EAAI-27) across one week and one trip
- ★The full call-for-papers timeline is published end to end, from the July abstract deadline through camera-ready on 14 December 2026
