New Moms Are Returning to Coding Jobs Radically Reshaped by AI
New mothers working in software development are staring down an AI-pilled workplace they barely recognize. As Danielle settled into the rhythms of new motherhood, her profession underwent a drastic reinvention. Danielle, who asked to use her first name to avoid damaging her job prospects, worked as a software developer at a car company in Portland, Oregon. Before she left the workforce in mid-2024, barely anybody used AI to write code; by the time she was ready to return, a year later, it had become the expectation. Once upon a time, she had been drawn to coding for the job security it offered, but AI was threatening to upend that.
AI Is Taking Over the Most Cursed Job in the World
There's a mad dash to automate the world's most hated calls. You'll hear from an AI debt collector sometime soon. She introduced herself as Eve, but Ben knew right away that the voice on the other end of the line was a bot. She also knew how much money he'd owed a former landlord ($266). She didn't seem to know that he'd settled with a collection agency five months prior. Eve said she was an AI agent from ProCollect and was calling to collect a debt.
Protesters push Portland to investigate firm that appears to supply drone tech to Israel
Cargo documents appear to show Sightline has shipped its technology to Elbit Systems, an Israeli arms manufacturer that provides drones to the country's military. Cargo documents appear to show Sightline has shipped its technology to Elbit Systems, an Israeli arms manufacturer that provides drones to the country's military. A nti-war activists in Portland, Oregon, are pushing city authorities to ensure no local resources, tax breaks or investments support a local company that appears to be supplying artificial intelligence software to the Israeli military. The company, Sightline Intelligence, manufactures AI-supported video technology that is used in drones to interpret target movements and make quick decisions based on the perceived threat level. Cargo documents appear to show Sightline has shipped its technology to Elbit Systems, an Israeli arms manufacturer that provides drones to that country's military and exports to others.

Jonathan Hutton & Chad Withrow ask Armando Salguero what position has the most value in this year's NFL draft I'm not sure why I do these things to myself, but I decided to go head-to-head with ChatGPT in a mock draft competition. I recently released my final mock draft, and then I asked ChatGPT to predict the entire first round. Below, you will see where we are the same and where we are different.
Causal models for decision systems: an interview with Matteo Ceriscioli
How do you go about integrating causal knowledge into decision systems or agents? We sat down with Matteo Ceriscioli to find out about his research in this space. This interview is the latest in our series featuring the AAAI/SIGAI Doctoral Consortium participants. Could you start by telling us a bit about your PhD - where are you studying, and what's the broad topic of your research? The idea is to integrate causal knowledge into agents or decision systems to make them more reliable.

Operator Learning for Smoothing and Forecasting
Calvello, Edoardo, Carlson, Elizabeth, Kovachki, Nikola, Manta, Michael N., Stuart, Andrew M.
Machine learning has opened new frontiers in purely data-driven algorithms for data assimilation in, and for forecasting of, dynamical systems; the resulting methods are showing some promise. However, in contrast to model-driven algorithms, analysis of these data-driven methods is poorly developed. In this paper we address this issue, developing a theory to underpin data-driven methods to solve smoothing problems arising in data assimilation and forecasting problems. The theoretical framework relies on two key components: (i) establishing the existence of the mapping to be learned; (ii) the properties of the operator learning architecture used to approximate this mapping. By studying these two components in conjunction, we establish novel universal approximation theorems for purely data driven algorithms for both smoothing and forecasting of dynamical systems. We work in the continuous time setting, hence deploying neural operator architectures. The theoretical results are illustrated with experiments studying the Lorenz `63, Lorenz `96 and Kuramoto-Sivashinsky dynamical systems.
