We are thrilled to invite you to a Fireside Chat on Broadband and AI: Innovation, Strategy, and Actions on Digital Equity and AI Education. Your invaluable expertise and efforts are crucial for our community, state, country, and the world. Together, let's make IEEE Seattle a vital force in our community. The United States federal government and Washington state have grants aimed at bringing broadband to rural areas and all people. Simultaneously, applying AI innovation is essential for many facets of infrastructure and daily life. In 2025, the IEEE Seattle Section and IEEE New Era AI, in collaboration with Washington State, are focusing on two pivotal areas: promoting digital equity in rural and underserved populations and advancing AI education. These initiatives are a strategic collaborative effort by the IEEE Seattle Section, Joint Communications Chapter, Computer Society Chapter, other chapters, corporations, and WA State. This Fireside Chat will delve into the innovation, strategy and formulation of the action plan for 2025. Our distinguished panelists include WA State Senators Lisa Wellman, Vandana Slatter, and Dr. Juan LaVista Ferres, Corporate VP & Chief Data Scientist for Microsoft AI for Good, along with other leading technical experts. Mini presentations on satellites, networks, and AI will be inspiring. Event Details: · Date: January 9th, 2025 · Time: 6:00PM - 7:45PM · Location: Microsoft Research Building 99, Room 1927, 14850 NE 36th St, Redmond, WA 98052 We look forward to your valuable contribution to this important discussion. In addition to the Fireside Chat, we will also present awards to those who missed the 'Sip and Inspire with AI' event in December 2024.

[] Title: Realizing Artificial Intelligence: Edge-to-Cloud-to-Exascale Abstract: Foundational models with trillions of parameters are being trained. Multi-modal GenAI and Inference Serving services are being deployed for a variety of use cases. To meet the computational demands of these AI workloads, we now have infrastructure with larger than ever GPUs and networks with ever increasing bandwidths. In this presentation, I will talk about challenges of running today’s AI workloads on extreme scale infrastructure. Hewlett Packard Labs is pursuing different research directions for building resilient, scalable and sustainable AI infrastructures. I will discuss how we are tackling the complexities of orchestrating AI/ML workloads by leveraging AI Workload simulations, GPU virtualization, performant communication collectives and novel accelerators.

Humans make decisions and solve problems using heuristics (“thinking fast”) or abstract approaches such as modeling (“thinking slow”). Artificial intelligence approaches can similarly use either heuristics that are related to correlation and categorization, or use models that are related to causation. Predictive Engineering, which melds engineering modeling with probabilistic thinking, aligns closely with causation and an aspect of artificial intelligence called Causal Learning. Issues with some artificial intelligence approaches will be explored, with real (and sometimes controversial and provocative) examples, and promising approaches encompassing causation /predictive engineering will be discussed.
