Now Announcing: Artificial Intelligence – Your Mind & The Machine
Opening January 2026 at the Science Center of Iowa
Artificial intelligence is no longer just science fiction—it’s already part of our everyday lives. But what is AI, really? How does it work? And what does it mean for the future?
Artificial Intelligence: Your Mind & The Machine is a groundbreaking new exhibit that explores the fascinating and fast-changing world of AI. Through hands-on interactives, visitors of all ages will learn how smart machines work, how they “think,” and how they’re shaping the way we live, learn, and connect.
Explore how AI compares to the human brain. Try an intelligent piano that makes you sound like a virtuoso. Use software that guesses your emotions or paints your portrait in real time. This is your chance to see, play, and experiment with the technology that’s changing everything.
