Advancing artificial intelligence and data analytics

Nikunj Oza So yeah, so NASA Ames itself has a pretty broad range of work that it does. So there's work going on, for example, in life science, there's work going on things like the heat shields for space vehicles to ensure that on reentry, it does not get too hot. There's certainly significant work in aeronautics things like management of airspace, they are researching new approaches to allow the airspace to be better managed, as we have more and more air traffic not only from commercial vehicles, but from new entrants, like UAVs. So really, AI has quite a broad range of applications within all of these pretty much most of these systems, the engineered systems that we produce, and also natural systems that we study, such as the Earth and space through all the various sensors that we have, they produce a significant amount of data. And oftentimes, what we want to do is sort of reverse engineer those data, so to speak, I mean, we have some understanding of the processes that generate these data.
