Three years after ChatGPT’s launch, generative AI capabilities have advanced at breakneck speed, yet schools are only beginning to grasp what’s at stake. While AI usage skyrockets among students and teachers, deep thinking about how K-12 institutions must fundamentally evolve remains scarce.

Last summer, AI for Education and Imagine Learning brought together 20 experts and students for an unprecedented convening inspired by the AI 2027 project. Join us as we share what we learned and how you can bring this process to your own community.

What we’ll cover:

  • Why this work matters now: After 2.5 years of ChatGPT, why collective imagination is essential for moving the education system from reactive policies to proactive transformation

  • Voices from the convening: Hear from a high school student participant and a state-level education leader about what surprised them, what they learned, and how bringing together diverse stakeholders changed their thinking

  • Preview of the full project: Get an early look at our research findings and practical frameworks for hosting your own scenario-based convening in your community
