What happened
Stanford HAI's One Hundred Year Study on Artificial Intelligence (AI100) is slated to release its third report, "AI Goes Mainstream: The Scaling Era and the Rise of Generative AI," in November 2026. The report was commissioned by the AI100 standing committee and is led by study panel chair Michael Wooldridge; it is being previewed at a Stanford HAI seminar scheduled for November 18, 2026. As of the 2026-10-29 to 2026-11-04 window the report text had not yet been published, so this is a watch item rather than a document to cite.
Why it matters
The AI100 series is a Tier-1 flagship synthesis of AI progress, safety and governance; a new edition is a must-read for board-level AI-risk framing when it publishes.
Action needed
Add the AI100 third report to your watch list and refresh your board's AI framing when it releases (expected mid-November 2026).
