My goal is not just to diagnose problems, but to contribute to a constructive conversation about how Canada can remain a globally competitive AI nation. I welcome feedback, discussion, and debate.

I’m pleased to share a new white paper: "The State of AI in Canada: Challenges, Opportunities, and Calls to Action," which is the culmination of a multi-month effort.

Today, Professor Georgia Perakis of @MITSloan announced a new department at @INFORMS's flagship journal, Manufacturing and Service Operations Management Journal (M&SOM): "AI in Operations." @maxccohen (@mcgillu) and I are honored to serve as the founding Department Editors starting January 2026. As Georgia put it, “AI has been rapidly evolving and is changing the field of Operations. Its impact is touching numerous Operations applications, ranging from healthcare to supply chains and more. One can argue the applications of AI arise, and can arise, in practically every area.” And the department seeks to “help our community showcase and be an outlet for all the important work our community does in this area.” In this new department, Maxime and I hope to spark and catalyze high-impact work on AI in operations, work that advances theory, empirics, behavioral foundations, and computational approaches, especially research that engages with generative and agentic AI. Georgia, thank you for your leadership, and for giving our community a new home for this work. This is our moonshot. This is our wheelhouse. We’re in a golden age of Operations.

This vision statement examines #AI’s impact on five key areas of #supplychains, highlighting advances in forecasting, decision-making, & human–machine collaboration, as well as the supply chains that support AI. Read more: spkl.io/6015AiIcL #AICommunity

Generative AI has opened a new era for algorithmic pricing, enabling firms of all sizes to take advantage of this previously expensive and complex strategy. An article for @law360 compares generative AI models and traditional pricing algorithms. analysisgroup.com/news-and-event…

@Chanman_ECON I'm so deeply sorry for your loss

On September 3, 2024, my beloved wife, best friend, and the wonderful mother of our daughter Leah, Akiko Uetake, passed away peacefully. Since June, Akiko had been battling breast cancer, which a renowned doctor at Yale Smilow Cancer Center described as “the most aggressive breast cancer I have seen in my 40-year career.” We were hopeful for her full recovery when she was first diagnosed, but tragically, the illness was too aggressive and claimed her life far too soon. Akiko was an incredibly strong and resilient person. Even when all the test results were discouraging, she never cried, never uttered a negative word, and never gave up. Instead, she became even more resilient and expressed gratitude to the doctors for their care and dedication. The same doctor remarked that he had never seen such a strong spirit in such a difficult situation. She was the person who did her best for everything. Akiko was also a fun, charming, and kind woman. Everyone who knew her remembers her big, beautiful smile—it's one of the reasons I fell in love with her. Her warmth and welcoming nature made everyone around her feel happy and at ease. Even while enduring unbearable pain, Akiko cared about other people and would crack jokes or sing silly songs to make them laugh. She was full of emotion. While this is not the outcome we had hoped for, Akiko taught me—and hopefully all of you who knew her— so much along the way. Akiko taught me the importance of strength, resilience, positivity, humor, charm, and joy. She showed us how to approach life with grace and courage. I hold Akiko in high regard as my wife and also as a human being. She impacted the way I should live. Akiko also emphasized the importance of family, friends, and community. We typically take those as given and do not recognize their values. The last three months have been devastating for us, but we have received so much support—through messages, food, help with childcare, and simply staying by our side. All of this has meant the world to us, and we cannot thank everyone enough. We are so grateful to be surrounded by such incredible people. Akiko taught us how lucky we are to be in such a wonderful community during this hardship. We will face the challenges ahead together. The good news is that our daughter Leah has inherited so many of Akiko’s wonderful traits. At just three years old, she is strong, resilient, kind, beautiful, and funny, just like her best mom. I do not know how to describe my feelings well… but thank you for everything, Akiko. I will remember every single memory we have shared forever. I love you. P.S. Here is the information about the obituary and services: marescafuneralhome.com/obituary/Akiko… Akiko and I discussed donations, and we believe that contributing to breast cancer research would be a meaningful way to honor her. These donations could help support new research and save others facing the same battle Akiko fought. Contributions in memory of Akiko Uetake can be made to the Director’s Fund at the Yale Cancer Center. Please make checks payable to Yale Cancer Center, and include “In memory of Akiko Uetake – Director’s Fund” in the memo line. Checks can be mailed to Yale Cancer Center, P.O. Box 7611, New Haven, CT 06519-0611. Secure online donations can also be made at tinyurl.com/YCCdirectorfund. Thank you for your gift in memory of Akiko.

Adopting AI medical scribes is a great example of how AI can serve as a copilot to complement humans and improve efficiency.

In the past 2 years, I've asked many physicians what was the most painful part of their daily jobs. I was surprised to learn that most of them complained about the documentation burden.
