Bozeman Magazine

Pioneers in the field of artificial intelligence, a prolific author of children’s books about science and nature and the scientist who led an expedition that discovered life in Antarctica are among 10 individuals who will be honored Oct. 1 in Bozeman for their pioneering work in computers, communications or biodiversity.

The recipients of this year’s awards will receive their awards at a private dinner, but following the dinner, the awardees will be part of a public forum where artificial intelligence and the future of humanity and biodiversity will be discussed. The forum is set for 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 1, in the Strand Union Building ballrooms on the MSU campus.
