BIIRGS AI²™ ECOSYSTEM
Artificial Intelligence
Ecosystem
Two pathways into one evidence-led ecosystem for human-technology interaction, connecting organizational transformation with public inquiry.
The Institute is building an artificial intelligence ecosystem that examines AI where it matters most: how people work, how organizations decide, and how societies live together. Through organizational practice and public inquiry, the Institute connects evidence, applied learning, and independent research across human-technology systems.
Guided by Amplifying Interconnectedness & Advancing Innovation™
01. TWO PATHWAYS, ONE MISSION
Choose how you engage
Each pathway serves a distinct community and produces a distinct contribution. Together, they advance the same mission.
FOR ORGANIZATIONS AND LEADERS
BIIRGS AI²™ Academy
Build organizational capability for AI-enabled work.
Cross-sector cohorts and tailored programs for senior leaders and their teams to navigate the human, organizational, and governance challenges emerging from AI-enabled work.
Contribution to the mission. Advances innovation inside organizations by translating evidence into redesigned work, rigorous diagnostic practice, and accountable AI governance.
FOR RESEARCHERS, PRACTITIONERS, AND PUBLIC-INTEREST LEADERS
BIIRGS AI²™ Fellowship
Explore how AI is reshaping public life.
A twelve-week online fellowship examining how artificial intelligence shapes democratic, digital, and economic life. Fellows move from a shared foundation into specialist inquiry and develop an individual applied capstone.
Contribution to the mission. Amplifies interconnectedness across public life by developing independent, cross-cultural inquiry into how AI shapes the systems people share.
02. ONE ECOSYSTEM
Different contexts. A shared lens.
The AI²™ Academy and AI²™ Fellowship are distinct pathways within one ecosystem, connected by a shared evidence base, a common lens, and a growing community.
Organizational Practice
AI²™ ACADEMY
A shared evidence base
Both pathways draw on the same interdisciplinary psychological science, so organizational and public perspectives on AI are examined with the same rigor.
Technopsychology
SHARED LENS
Two levels of analysis
The Academy asks how organizations should redesign work and governance. The Fellowship asks how AI is reshaping public life. Each sharpens the questions the other pursues.
Public Inquiry
AI²™ FELLOWSHIP
One growing community
Academy participants, Fellowship alumni, partners, and contributors form a cross-sector community connected through the Institute's programming and Civic Resource Hub.
03. AREAS OF FOCUS

04. OUR GUIDING PHILOSOPHY
Amplifying Interconnectedness & Advancing Innovation™
Artificial intelligence does not sit in a single domain. It moves through individuals, organizations, communities, and the institutions that govern them, and change at any one level shapes the whole.
Amplifying Interconnectedness
Individuals, organizations, society, and the environment are one interconnected system. Our AI programming treats workplace adoption, public life, and governance as connected questions, so that insight gained in one setting strengthens practice in another.
Advancing Innovation
We apply psychological science, systems thinking, and The BIIRGS Iceberg™ Methodology to human-technology interaction, turning deep insight into adaptive models that help people and institutions adopt, govern, and live well with AI.
A Shared Lens: Technopsychology
Both pathways examine AI through technopsychology, the study of how technologies shape human experience, behavior, and relationships, and how people shape technology in return.
