SUMMARY:BCS Colloquium Series: Michael Bernstein
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title:\nGenerative Agents: Interactive Simulacra of Human Behavior \nAbstract:\nBelievable proxies of human attitudes and behavior can empower applications ranging from immersive environments to social policy interventions. However\, the last quarter century has seen a slow recession of human behavioral simulation as a method\, in part because traditional simulations have been unable to capture the complexity and contingency of human behavior. I argue that modern artificial intelligence models allow us to re-examine this limitation. I make my case through generative agents: computational software agents that simulate believable human behavior. Generative agents enable us to populate an interactive sandbox environment inspired by The Sims\, where end users can interact with a small town of twenty five agents using natural language. Our generative agent architecture empowers agents to remember\, reflect\, and plan — enabling them to wake up\, cook breakfast\, and head to work; artists paint\, while authors write; they form opinions\, notice each other\, and initiate conversations; they remember and reflect on days past as they plan the next day. Extending this line of argument\, I explore how proxying human behavior and attitudes can help us design more effective online social spaces\, understand the societal disagreement underlying modern AI models\, and better embed societal values into our algorithms. \nBio:\nMichael Bernstein is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University\, where he is a Bass University Fellow and STMicroelectronics Faculty Scholar. His research in human-computer interaction focuses on the design of social computing systems. This research has won best paper awards at top conferences in human-computer interaction\, including CHI\, CSCW\, ICWSM\, and UIST\, and has been reported in venues such as The New York Times\, Science\, Wired\, and The Guardian. Michael has been recognized with an Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship\, UIST Lasting Impact Award\, and the Patrick J. McGovern Tech for Humanity Prize. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Symbolic Systems from Stanford University\, as well as a master’s degree and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from MIT. \nThis talk is followed by an hour reception with appetizers and beverages in the Building 46 3rd floor atrium. \nThis talk is also available by zoom webinar.

SUMMARY:CANARY
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Alex Rivest once studied the brain circuits underlying episodic memory formation Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Now the Boston native has taken to the big screen to change the way the public sees scientists. \n“We’ve all just lived through a moment when the world stopped because society could not grapple with science. This is a problem for an enterprise that is so fundamental to our understanding of where we belong in the universe and how to navigate a better\, more sustainable future\,” Dr. Rivest tells Science In Boston. \n“I set out to create more heroes in science and elevate more scientists by telling some of the most amazing stories of curiosity\, overcoming seemingly impossible odds\, and bravery beyond what any of us can imagine. When I left academia\, I set out to change the way science is seen in the media.” \nCANARY is coming to the Boston Common Theater for one night only. Support Dr. Rivest next week on September 20th at 7:30 pm.

SUMMARY:RegSci Forum “An Inflection Point for High-Quality Diagnostic Tests in Oncology”
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: \nDr. Brian Alexander\, CEO Foundation Medicine \nAbout the talk:  \nThe evolution of precision cancer care—the practice of matching the right patient to the right treatment at the right time—has advanced care significantly in recent years. We have made tremendous progress in fighting cancer using insights from our increased understanding of the genomic mutations underlying the more than 100 different types of cancer. But precision cancer care can only be as good as the quality of the tests used to guide diagnosis and treatment. Today\, we are at an inflection point where we have an opportunity to prioritize the development and availability of high-quality tests so patients and physicians can receive accurate and reliable information allowing them to confidently inform a diagnosis\, disease progression and treatment options. Regulatory reforms that are fundamentally flawed and disincentivize the development of high-quality tests are not in the best interest of patients.
