Design at the Human-AI Frontier

Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how engineers imagine, evaluate, and build solutions. In this talk, Christopher McComb, Gerard G. Elia Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering, will share examples from engineering and design showing where AI acts as a tool, a coach, and even a collaborator, and what that means for our work as human beings. Together, we'll consider what should change, what must be preserved, and the research directions that will keep humans at the center of design

Please register by 5:00 p.m. EDT on Monday, October 6. Zoom login details will be forwarded to you upon completion of your registration.
