How Artificial Intelligence Can Help in Quickly Translating Published Research in Real-World Practice and Policymaking?

Published research needs to be used in real-world practice for making a meaningful difference in lives of patients, families, health care professionals, and other individuals whom the research affects. We know from research that it could take about 15 to 17 years for the published research to make it into real-world practice and policymaking, and about 85% of the research is never used in practice. A new scientific field called implementation science deals with designing innovative and effective behavior change methods and techniques for accelerating the transfer of high-quality published research in practice and policymaking.

Socially Responsible Artificial Intelligence Empowered People Analytics: A Novel Framework Towards Sustainability

In today’s data-driven world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and People Analytics are shaping how organizations understand and manage their workforce. But what do these terms really mean, and how do they impact our workplaces? Let’s break it down in simple terms.

The implications of generative AI for hospitality, travel and tourism

The introduction of the ChatGPT by Open AI has created a major disruption to the entire economy around the globe. In its short tenure, ChatGPT and alternative generative artificial intelligence (GAI) tools showed tremendous opportunities as well as challenges for overall economy and all industries. Certainly, hospitality, tourism, and travel industries are not immune to this major disruption.

An eye for AI: In the age of artificial intelligence, who will win the race between governance and innovation?

Artificial intelligence is introducing significant structural and institutional changes by challenging existing laws and regulations, industry practices, emerging organizational forms, new forms of labor, and leadership roles. How can we harness AI's power through governance so as to help solve societal problems without amplifying existing inequalities or creating new ones?

Behind the collection: Applying Artificial Intelligence Techniques to Encourage Economic Growth and Maintain Sustainable Societies

In the latest Science Progress (IF 1.512) Special Collection, several international Guest Editors teamed up to encourage new findings and innovative research that explore the application of AI in achieving social sustainability, considering local, regional, and national characteristics. Topics include theoretical frameworks, empirical studies integrating AI technologies, deep learning in transportation, forecasting renewable energy applications, and economic and environmental assessments with AI applications. Here, we chat with one of the Guest Editors, Dr. Chih-Chun Kung, to learn more about the collection and the experience of launching one.

When Artificial Intelligence Meets Behavioural Economics

‘I don’t think there’s a task you can name that a machine can’t do—in principle. If you can define a task and a human can do it, then a machine can, at least in theory’

The days of decisions based on heuristics/intuition are numbered thanks to AI-based interventions.

Embracing Digitalization: Student Learning and New Technologies

Digital change is like a fast-moving tsunami, with the digitalization of many business practices creating new relationships between businesses and customers and altering the marketing landscape. Industries and organizations are increasingly disrupted by new or unique applications of technology. Incumbents that become complacent are replaced by those who embrace innovative approaches to enhance the customer experience.

The ethics of AI and working with data at scale: what are the experts saying

If we were to do a text mining exercise on all the incredible discussions at last week’s conference 100+ Brilliant Women in AI & Ethics, education would beat all other topics by a mile. We talked about educating kids, we had teenagers share their thoughts on AI in poems and essays, and exchanged views on the nuances of teaching ethics in computing and working with large volumes of social data both for computer scientists and experts from other disciplines.

Instead of seeing criticisms of AI as a threat to innovation, can we see them as a strength?

At CogX, the Festival of AI and Emergent Technology, two icons appeared over and over across the King’s Cross location. The first was the logo for the festival itself, an icon of a brain with lobes made up of wires. The second was for the 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a partner of the festival.
