The Values and Roles of Science Museums in the Age of AI

The International Symposium of Science Museums (ISSM) has become a significant platform where science museum professionals and related experts from around the world gather to discuss current issues, share insights, and strengthen collaboration within the global science museum community. The 15th ISSM, under the theme “The Values and Roles of Science Museums in the Era of AI,” will provide a timely opportunity to reflect on the direction science museums should take in a world where artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming society.
While the advancement of AI technology offers new possibilities for exhibitions, education, and operations in science museums, it also presents ethical and social challenges that must be addressed. This symposium will explore how science museums can redefine their roles as educational and cultural hubs, and how they can establish themselves as key institutions leading science and technology culture in future society.
We sincerely invite you to join us in this meaningful gathering as we envision the future of science museums together.
