I am thrilled to welcome back to Resoundingly Human the 2024 INFORMS President Julie Swann, who is also the A. Doug Allison Distinguished Professor and Department Head of the Edward P. Fitts Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at North Carolina State University, to share some behind the scenes updates on all that’s been happening with INFORMS!
Of course every day there are new innovations coming out with respect to AI and what that means for the future and I like to remind people that we’re not just about predicting the future, we’re really about making the future. So INFORMS and INFORMS members and our constituents are helping to drive what that future looks like.
