On 9 August 2026 CAAI welcomed its largest single intake — nineteen new researchers, arriving
from journalism, molecular biology, finance, logistics, psychology, law, media and design.
Each is being matched to a project, and the fields below are what they came here to work
on.
It is the clearest illustration yet of how the lab is meant to work: artificial intelligence
is the method, and the questions come from everywhere else.
