.Benjamin C Lee (Penn Electrical and Systems Engineering, @cis_penn), in a recent Q&A with Penn Today, explains how NPUs are enabling more efficient on-device AI in phones and laptops. He also notes the sustainability tradeoffs as larger chips carry a higher carbon footprint.

In a two-part NPR podcast series, Benjamin C Lee (Penn Electrical and Systems Engineering, @cis_penn) discusses how data centers powering AI systems are driving up energy and water use and what can be done to reduce their footprint. n.pr/3EI0Jn7 #AIandClimate #DataCenters

What are the 5 truths all young professionals need to know about entering and navigating an AI-driven workplace? For one — AI literacy is NOT optional. Professor Chris Callison-Burch, our MSE-AI Online Program Director, shared his thoughts with Forbes : bit.ly/40dawc2

“When [an AI] model is set up with an opportunity to fail and you see it fail, that’s super useful information,” says The Warren Center for Network & Data Sciences affiliate prof-g. “That means we can predict what it’s going to do in other, more open circumstances.” yahoo.com/news/researche…

A recent Forbes article highlights how AI is shaping early careers. According to Chris Callison-Burch, professor in @cis_penn, this is because "AI can perform tasks that were previously reserved for trained professionals." However, Callison-Burch adds that "it’s a perfect time
