Active Inference Institute
The Active Inference Institute is dedicated to learning, researching, and applying Active Inference.
The Active Inference Institute provides a setting for people to aid each other in pursuit of a better understanding of Active Inference. The Institute organizes participatory education and research to advance the progress and public awareness of frontier knowledge in Active Inference and closely related topics. As of 2024 the Institute is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt nonprofit organization (donate here).
We structure our strategy and role in the Active Inference ecosystem with the building blocks of open science, accessibility, and service.
