According to Yann LeCun (@ylecun), NYU has elevated the Courant Institute to a full-fledged school named the Courant Institute School of Mathematics, Computing, and Data Science. This new structure is expected to significantly expand NYU’s capabilities in AI research, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the development of next-generation AI talent. The move positions NYU as a major hub for artificial intelligence, data science, and machine learning education and innovation, offering greater opportunities for academic-business partnerships and real-world AI applications (source: x.com/NYU_Courant/status/1989072686396633481).
