Nobel Prize

The 2026 Nobel Prize Dialogue in Seoul asks how AI will transform the future of science, and seeks to explore what these changes mean for our ability to develop scientific solutions to the urgent challenges we face. 

The 2026 Nobel Week Dialogue will focus on artificial intelligence, increasingly described as the most consequential technology in history.

AI has already contributed to applications across all STEM fields. In this Nobel Prize Dialogue we look ahead to the ways that AI might transform science in the future.

Is real progress ever predictable, how dependent is the development of our understanding on new technology, does AI change everything and what role does imagination play in scientific discovery?
