BALTIMORE, MD, October 31, 2024 – INFORMS, the leading international association for professionals in operations research, analytics, management science, economics, behavioral science, statistics, artificial intelligence, data science, applied mathematics and other relevant fields, announced that Mark E. Lewis, Maxwell M. Upson Professor of Engineering at Cornell University, has been elected the 2026 INFORMS president.
Recent polls suggest a “too close to call” race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. This has been the case for several weeks, as both candidates work to convince voters in seven key states (Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada) that their votes are needed to secure victory.
Seemingly every day, new polls report that Donald Trump is either ahead of Kamala Harris by 2 points or behind by 2 points.

In the current era of artificial intelligence (AI) reshaping industries worldwide, integrating AI in healthcare, public policy, and business is paramount. Dr. Soroush Saghafian, the visionary founder and director of the Public Impact Analytics Science Lab (PIAS-Lab) at Harvard, is a key figure at this intersection. His pioneering work as a Harvard professor involves developing, integrating, and using appropriate analytical tools in operations research, management science, machine learning and big data, decision-making, statistics, AI, and related fields has profoundly impacted societal outcomes.
Large language models (LLMs) have brought about advances in artificial intelligence that few researchers thought possible before, at least so soon. ChatGPT set records for its fastest-growing user base in internet history a mere two months after its release to the public. Now there’s frequent talk about the inevitability of artificial general intelligence, where machines have the same types of abilities as humans. Before we get too excited though, we must be mindful of both what LLMs can’t do and what they do that is undesirable.
