+
+<h4 style="text-align:center;">Building New York’s AI Future, Together</h4>
+
+Artificial intelligence is increasingly woven into the systems and decisions that shape everyday life—from classrooms and research labs to startups, public agencies, and creative spaces. As these technologies reshape how power, opportunity, and innovation move through society, important questions emerge about their impact and direction. With the pace of adoption accelerating, the need for open, inclusive dialogue about AI’s future has never been greater.

+**The New York AI Exchange is our response: a hub for bold ideas, shared insight, and collective action.**
+
+#### What is the New York AI Exchange?

+The NY AI Exchange brings together education, research, policy, industry, the arts, and the broader public into one shared conversation.
+Conceived under the leadership of Julia Stoyanovich and operated by the NYU Center for Responsible AI (R/AI), the Exchange is a partnership between R/AI and the City University of New York (CUNY) Office of the University Dean for Technology and Computing.
