The two Northwestern Engineering faculty members spoke at the September 27 event.
Nicholas Diakopoulos is a Professor of Communication Studies at the Northwestern School of Communication and Professor of Computer Science (by courtesy) at the McCormick School of Engineering and was a 2023–24 Buffett Faculty Fellow. He is leveraging computational journalism to explore how generative AI will transform newsrooms.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has generated new threats to national and global security, but a lab jointly housed in the Buffett Institute and McCormick School of Engineering is unleashing AI’s potential to combat them, advance justice-driven social movements and foster greater global peace.
One of President Michael Schill's priorities includes harnessing the power of data analytics and artificial intelligence.
