Why this session: To leverage the senior audience’s expertise for meaningful dialogue on the complex issues shaping our community.
Curated topics, with an open engagement of appropriate speakers within and outside IEEE.
Abstract: Artificial intelligence is transforming every stage of the scientific enterprise—from how knowledge is created and communicated to how researchers learn, collaborate, and build professional communities. This panel will bring together leaders from academia, industry, and professional societies to debate how organizations such as IEEE must evolve to remain relevant, trusted, and valuable in an AI-enabled world. Rather than predicting technology, the discussion will challenge long-held assumptions about publications, conferences, education, and the future role of scientific societies.
