This year, R+AI is being held November 10-11, 2026.

Lend your voice to the community! We want to hear about your experience and specific workflows—from machine learning and large language models in R, to AI-assisted coding tools, industry deployments, and responsible AI research.

Early bird pricing is available until October 12: 50% off for students, and over 30% off for academia and industry!

## About the conference

R+AI brings together practitioners, researchers, and industry teams for talks, lightning talks, workshops, and panels designed to educate, connect, and empower R users at every level.

Conference dates are November 10-11, 2026. Registration is now open.

## R + AI Community Needs Survey

Where is the R community on AI today, and where is it headed? Take this short survey on tools, trust, reproducibility, and real-world workflows. Your responses will help shape R Consortium webinars, working groups, resources, and R+AI 2026 programming.

It takes about 7–10 minutes, and respondents who share an email get early access to the results.
