Since its founding in March, AI@GT has expanded its leadership teams, established partnerships with industry leaders, and built a robust social media presence.  

Aditya Gupta, a third-year computer science student and president and founder of AI@GT, said he hopes the organization can help create a multidisciplinary community around AI at Tech.  

“We want to emphasize that the club is not just for computer science majors or people already experienced with AI. Ultimately, AI will not just remain within CS. It spans multiple industries — from the arts to music and design to business analytics,” he said.  

The organization welcomes all students to learn about AI through events, hackathons, and projects.  

“It’s not all about building a model; it’s about exploring how to use AI in your everyday work. Right now, we’ve mostly had fireside chats and speaker sessions, but we are trying to coordinate more workshops to grant people hands-on experience,” Gupta said.  

A recent fireside chat with OpenAI on Sept. 24, allowed students to network with Siya Raj Purohit and Fabio Mori, members of the company’s Go-to-Market team. The conversation focused on their insights and ideas for bringing cutting-edge AI technologies to market.  

Looking toward the future, Gupta discussed his aspirations for the club. “When people are researching the best universities to go to if they are interested in AI, I want Georgia Tech’s name to pop up,” he said. “We hope to grow the AI sphere in Atlanta as well.” 

In line with this vision, AI@GT, partnering with Startup Exchange, will host AI ATL this week. The 36-hour event ]  will include an opening ceremony,  workshops, and hacking.  

Attendance is free, and walk-in registration will be available on Friday, Oct. 25, from 3 to 4 p.m.
