Some more on the JLab AI workshop (this is how I learned of it). Meanwhile at BNL, I've heard nothing from the lab-wide initiative to develop an AI strategy begun last March or so. I attach the rather substance-free slides from Kirsten in Nov that Hong referred me to when I asked the status. The slides point to Frank Alexander so I've asked him where things are. Whatever state CSI and the lab are in wrt ML/AI, we need to be on the ball ourselves in NPPS; inventorying the ML/AI activities taking place in or near NPPS can be a start. I'll bring this up on Friday.
JLab operates with physics, computing, CS and their management collaborating very closely and constructively. An approach we can envy that has good returns like this workshop.

Dear Colleagues,
As you may know, a workshop “AI for Nuclear Physics” will be held
March 4-6, 2020 at Jefferson Lab (see
https://www.jlab.org/conference/AI2020 ). Your institution has suggested
your name to serve on an Advisory Committee to help plan the scope and
program of this workshop. The agenda will include plenary sessions,
breakout sessions, and a networking reception. The anticipated
participants will include active lab and university researchers in
nuclear physics and accelerator science, industry experts in AI,
academic researchers in areas related to AI, and observers from DOE.
The outcomes of the workshop will be summarized in a report.
This should represent an important opportunity to assess AI
activities in nuclear physics and related areas, and chart a course for
the future. I hope you can agree to assist us in planning this workshop
and please also consider attending yourself. (If you need to suggest an
alternate committee member from your institution, please let me know.)
We will follow up soon to poll you for availability for a phone
conference in the next 1-2 weeks. Meanwhile, please give some thought to
suggestions for plenary speakers, and breakout session convenors and topics.
I look forward to working with you to make this workshop a success.
Thanks in advance for your assistance. My assistant Pat Stroop will
contact you soon to schedule a phone conference.
For the local organizing committee,
Bob McKeown
