Artificial Intelligence

On March 28, the White House took a pretty big step toward establishing a broader national policy on artificial intelligence when it issued a memorandum on how the federal government will manage it. It established new federal agency requirements and guidance for AI governance, innovation and risk management. All of this is in keeping with the AI in Government Act of 2020, the Advancing American AI Act, and the President’s executive order on the “Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence.”  

These days, you can barely spell “health care” without the letters “A” and “I” — and for good reason. In an era of aging populations, declining productivity, rising costs, and disparities in access to care, artificial intelligence presents a rare opportunity to break the vicious cycle by improving health care access, outcomes, and productivity while lowering costs.

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. 

Without changes, thousands of academic papers could be sent to chatbots as reviewers without the knowledge of the authors, Cynthia Rudin warns.

Johns Hopkins professor Tinglong Dai says a subscription model for AI is the most sustainable model for reimbursement. 

Millions of Americans are sweating over one of the most intrusive processes known to mankind. The IRS is in high gear as it prepares to process tax returns.

Using my face as my boarding pass to get on a flight to Oaxaca, Mexico and then as my passport to get back in the US got me thinking about how facial recognition has permeated the travel experience. To help us understand where this is going, we talk with two travel industry experts, Dr. Sheldon Jacobson and Henry Harteveldt.

With the tax deadline approaching, many people are resorting to AI-powered Large language models (LLM) to file their returns, per a new survey by CardRates.com. Nearly 1 in 5 Americans would trust ChatGPT, the AI Chatbot by OpenAI, to review taxes with 14% of the respondents saying that they have used it already, the survey said.

The tax deadline is approaching and some filers are turning to chatbots powered by artificial intelligence for help with returns.

AI is revolutionizing tax preparation, offering efficiency and accuracy. Yet, it faces challenges like bias and reliability concerns.
