🚨New paper at #ICED23 by @ccmccomb, @joncagan, and @peterboatwright exploring the roadmap to effective #AI collaborators! 1️⃣ AI can be a design tool, partner, or guide 2️⃣ AI has different effects in proactive/reactive roles 3️⃣ The AI-Human Teaming Matrix guides development

Our conference paper from last year is up — with @sbenthall @alanlujan91 @ccmccomb John Liechty, Chris Carroll, and Nicholas Skar-Gislinge: "Simulating Heterogeneous Portfolio Choices and Financial Market Outcomes" ceur-ws.org/Vol-3420/paper…

The rise of generative AI, as demonstrated by text-based applications like Chat GPT and Bard, as well as image generators like Midjourney and Stable Diffusion, has sparked a wave of anticipation in the engineering realm. Article by @Design_for_AM: wevolver.com/article/enteri… #AI

I want to interview more people for Chain of Thought! I’m looking for: - People using LLMs in their day to day (both work and personal) - Researchers / builders working on ambitious things in AI Who should I talk to?

It really pisses me off when grad programs & fellowships want diversity statements from my students, asking how their minoritized status will “contribute” to the program. UH, better question, what are you going to do for my students?

Can #AI collaborate w/ human designers as a partner or even as a #manager? How will increasingly advanced AI change the way we work & #design? Multidisciplinary experts in the Human+AI Design Initiative are exploring these questions. engineering.cmu.edu/human-ai-desig… #futureofwork

The framework developed by @ccmccomb and student Glen Williams hopes to educate and encourage the academic and industrial engineering community to adopt AI engineering design.

Engineering designers are missing breakthrough opportunities by integrating #AI during late-stage development. Researchers in @CMU_Mech have developed a framework to change this. engineering.cmu.edu/news-events/ne…

Taking a moment to highlight a recent ep on the difficult but important topic of non-accidental trauma (NAT): In this ep, Dr Kristen Fortin (@ChildrensPhila) provides guidance on hx taking, signs to look out for on exam, and using a clinical pathway to minimize bias #MedTwitter

Hello Twitter! Our lab works at the intersection of computational engineering and medicine. We develop multiscale computational models to understand and quantify disease progression, support diagnosis, and optimize treatment strategies. Follow us for news and research updates!

Are you or someone you know interested in grad school in a field related to neuromechanics or #robotics? the @NSF Funded #NeuroNex C3NS team is recruiting at many member institutions and hosting a virtual open house on Dec 5th. More info and register here: sites.google.com/andrew.cmu.edu…

The interactive structures lab is growing! We have 🎓**PhD positions** and **internships**. Interested in shaping the future of materials, soft robotics, haptics, or assistive technology? Join us at @SCSatCMU @cmuhcii 📅PhDs, apply by Dec 9: cs.cmu.edu/academics/phd/…
