Invitation:
NAE Virtual Exchange on Service Systems Engineering in the Era of Human-Centered AI
Dear Colleague:
On behalf of Dr. Guru Madhavan and Dr. Bill Rouse from the National Academy of Engineering, I write to invite you to participate in the October 17, 2022, NAE Forum on Complex Unifiable Systems (FOCUS) program’s virtual exchange on service systems engineering in the era of human-centered AI, an event being co-organized with Dr. Paul Maglio and Dr. Jim Spohrer.
With AI advances poised to drive service system productivity and quality—similar to the way previous generations of technology revolutionized agriculture and manufacturing productivity and quality—it is time to take stock for industry-academic-and-government stakeholders on this important topic. This online exchange will begin with an opening keynote from Dr. Nicholas Donofrio of IBM (Retired Executive Vice President Innovation and Technology), followed by four panels and an open discussion on next steps that the National Academy of Engineering could pursue on this subject. The meeting agenda is attached, we believe your participation can help stimulate a lively exchange of ideas.
Please register here for further event details and the Zoom link.
With our thanks and best wishes,
Guru Madhavan
Bill Rouse
Paul P. Maglio
