About

interactive intelligence (i2) is the University of Washington's student-led NeuroAI education and research organization. We're a community of students learning, building, and researching at the intersection of artificial intelligence and neuroscience. Across our programs, members work on topics spanning deep learning, computational neuroscience, mechanistic interpretability, and the broader question of what intelligence is and how to build it.

Team

i2 is run by a diverse team of student officers and supported by faculty advisors.

Our story

i2 started in 2021 as a small group of computer science and neuroscience students teaching each other their fields. That peer-to-peer model grew into the courses, journal clubs, and guest talks we run today.

The goal was to lower the barrier to both. Neuroscience and computer science can each feel intimidating from the outside, and we don't think either should be reserved for people who already have formal training. i2 is meant to be a place where students from any background can go deep on AI and neuroscience without gatekeeping or judgment, built on the belief that anyone can learn anything with the right community, resources, and opportunities.
