Responsible and Generative AI for Intelligent and Sustainable Digital Transformation

The rapid advancement of Generative Artificial Intelligence (Generative AI) has ushered in a new phase of digital transformation, enabling intelligent systems to generate content, derive knowledge, automate decision-making processes, and foster innovation across a wide range of domains, including education, healthcare, industry, creative sectors, and public services. While these developments offer significant opportunities, they also raise critical challenges related to ethical deployment, data privacy, intellectual property rights, transparency, system reliability, and broader societal implications.As digital transformation continues to evolve, it is imperative that the design, development, and deployment of Generative AI and intelligent computing technologies adhere to the principles of responsibility, security, and human-centeredness. Addressing issues such as AI governance, explainability, bias mitigation, cybersecurity resilience, misinformation, and sustainable computing has become a global research priority.The International Conference on Computing and Applied Informatics 2026 (ICCAI 2026) aims to provide an international forum for researchers, academics, and practitioners to present and discuss recent advances, emerging trends, and practical applications in computer science and information technology, with a strong emphasis on Generative AI, responsible AI, and sustainable digital innovation. The conference encourages interdisciplinary collaboration that bridges theoretical foundations and real-world implementations, while promoting ethical, trustworthy, and socially beneficial technological progress.Hosted by the Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology, Universitas Sumatera Utara, ICCAI 2026 invites scholars and professionals from around the world to participate, exchange ideas, and establish international collaborations in shaping an intelligent, trustworthy, and sustainable digital future.
