Call for Papers - AI4Tech: AI Enabling Critical Technologies

We invite your original quality submissions to the IJCAI-ECAI 2026 Special Track on AI4Tech: AI Enabling Critical Technologies. The AI4Tech Track aims to consolidate and promote advanced AI transforming critical new- and next-generation technologies. About AI4Tech Complementing AI for Science (AI4Science), AI for technologies (AI4Tech) refers to the synergy between AI and technologies, where AI meets, enables and transforms technologies over domains, time, and generations. This AI4Tech ecosystem has been intensified with the advancement of any AI paradigms (X-AI), in particular, human-like, analytical, generative and multimodal decentralized, physical, digital, virtual, humanoid, metaverse, behavioral, and emotional AI. Such AI advances further transform and translate any critical technologies (X-Tech) that cannot be addressed by non-AI methodologies and technologies, going beyond direct applications of AI to specific domains. Over the AI history, the roles of AI4Tech have been increasingly augmented towards developing and advancing critical, new- and next-generation technological ecosystems.
