麻省理工学院计算机科学与人工智能实验室（简称CSAIL）由麻省理工学院的计算机科学实验室和人工智能实验室在2003年，致力于以计算机科学和人工智能开创计算领域的新研究，进而改善人们工作、学习和娱乐的方式。CSAIL专注于开发新技术，推动计算领域的基础研究，激励培养科学家和技术人员。60多个研究小组通过数百个不同的项目，开发新方法提升系统和机器的智能性、年敏捷性、安全性和运行效率。
CSAIL通过开发基础新技术和进行基础研究不断推动计算领域的应用和发展，将计算的理论和研究成果用于生产生活的各个方面，万维网、RSA加密以及互联网的技术让CSAIL帮助塑造了现代社会的支柱。通过与企业、机构及其他研究小组合作，CSAIL为其提供理论支持以转化为经济效益，由研究所产生的公司有100多家。
目前CSAIL的主要研究领域在人工智能和计算机系统和理论，寻求人机交互的进一步发展，并推广深入数学在计算机中的广泛性和实时性，从硬件和软件两方面开发新的方法、规则、系统和模型，进而为人类社会和信息时代服务。
The MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), founded in 2003 by the MIT Computer Science Laboratory and the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, is dedicated to pioneering new research in computing with computer science and artificial intelligence to improve the way people work, learn, and play. CSAIL focuses on developing new technologies that advance basic research in computing and inspire the development of scientists and technicians. Through hundreds of different projects, more than 60 research groups have developed new ways to improve the intelligence, annual agility, safety and operational efficiency of systems and machines.
CSAIL continues to promote the application and development of computing fields through the development of basic new technologies and basic research, applying the theory and research results of computing to all aspects of production and life, and the technology of the World Wide Web, RSA encryption and the Internet has allowed CSAIL to help shape the pillars of modern society. By working with companies, institutions and other research groups, CSAIL provides theoretical support to translate into economic benefits, and more than 100 companies have been generated by the research.
At present, CSAIL's main research areas are in artificial intelligence and computer systems and theory, seeking the further development of human-computer interaction, and promoting the extensiveness and real-time nature of in-depth mathematics in computers, developing new methods, rules, systems and models from both hardware and software aspects, and then serving human society and the information age.
