Amir Behzadan, professor of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering and IBS faculty research fellow, attended the AI for Numerical Weather Prediction (AI4NWP) workshop on May 6. Hosted by both the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), this invitation-only workshop gathered experts from academia, government and the private sector to discuss the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) to transform weather prediction. Behzadan served on a panel about building and maintaining trust in AI systems. He provided his expertise on how human trust in AI-generated weather predictions can be used to inform decision-making. Susan Glairon, senior communications specialist for the College of Engineering and Applied Science, writes more about Behzadan’s experience at this important event here.
