Things to Do with Kids

Leap into the wild new world of artificial intelligence with the Exploratorium! Discover how AI works, think like a computer, and paint with your voice. Interact with AI-powered artworks, look inside a video game chip, and play with image generators. Encounter AI at work in real-world science and research, explore its ethics and impacts, and bring your curiosity to live programs for adults and families.

Exhibit continues until September 14, 2025.
