New project: Demystifying AI
13th January 2026
We’re excited to announce that we’re one of 15 partners running the Association for Science and Discovery Centre’s science engagement programme: Demystifying AI!
This new programme has been created to support young people, families, schools and communities to understand AI in everyday life, careers and skills development in AI, and to platform regional diversity through both in person and online engagements.
Over the next 3 months we will be developing a new hands-on experience as well as a series of livestream events. Stay tuned for updates on our social media and events page!
UPDATE: the first livestream dates are being announced on our new webpage and our events page, check them out here!
Help inform our livestream series!
We’re asking local experts your question in our new livestream series – so send us ANY questions you have about AI, and we’ll explore the answers in our new series!

Demystifying AI is supported by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), with project development from Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC, part of UKRI).

Exeter Science Centre is part of a UK-wide network of regional science and discovery centres and museums all playing a strategic role in engaging the public with science and technology. Every year this network engages over 25 million people, delivering cutting-edge scientific research and broad and inclusive community engagement to develop essential STEM skills for future generations of scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians.
