Why an equity lens is critical in the design and deployment of AI In 2023, the Center for Technology Innovation (CTI) at Brookings launched the AI Equity Lab, an interdisciplinary, cross-sector research and policy project aimed at finding solutions that lead to more inclusive artificial intelligence. Since its inception, the AI Equity Lab has engaged more than 60 distinguished experts who understand the intersection between AI and society to collaboratively assess and determine the opportunities and risks AI presents in critical areas, including education, health care, journalism, and criminal justice. On December 9, join the Center for Technology Innovation at Brookings for an event with CTI Director and AI Equity Lab co-chair Nicol Turner Lee, who will provide an update on the work of the Lab and moderate a panel of experts who will share more about their findings and discuss why the framing of equity in human-centered AI is critical to advancing more democratized and ethical models. https://www.brookings.edu/events/why-an-equity-lens-is-critical-in-the-design-and-deployment-of-ai/ Please register here and at this meeting site.

This is our year-end technical meeting and dinner honoring our past Chapter Chairs. Abstract We will begin with a brief overview of radiation effects in electronics, and their effect on reliability. Then we will cover the history of the discovery and our growing awareness of them, with special attention paid to the place of the Harvard Cyclotron Laboratory (HCL)/Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Rad Test program in that history. We will then look at what factors made HCL so prominent in the early work of understanding these effects, and why the re-purposing of equipment built at HCL for the MGH program was particularly useful in electronics reliability testing. Finally, we will finish with a few words on the future of the MGH test program.
