INFORMS Artificial Intelligence Strategy: Opportunities at the Intersection of AI and O.R.

Keynote given at the 2019 INFORMS Annual Meeting in Seattle, WA by 2019 INFORMS President Ramayya Krishnan and Pascal Van Hentenryck

From driverless cars to deep learning, from AlphaGo to poker, from health care diagnosis and delivery to smart operations, applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have captured public imagination and become an active topic of discussion among leaders in all sectors.

In this keynote presentation, we will present the key ideas underlying the AI strategy for INFORMS and the work already underway that will find ways for members to benefit from the rise of AI. This will draw on the work done by the board, the AI strategy committee, and countless members of INFORMS.
