🚨 LAST CALL: How can we build AI that humans actually trust?

AI is moving faster than the tools we use to govern it. Tomorrow evening, we’re hosting two incredible experts to discuss how we can make AI safer, more transparent, and more reliable for everyone.

Why you should attend:
✅ Learn why 88% of AI pilots fail (and how to be the other 12%).
✅ Discover how "Circuit Breakers" can stop AI from making dangerous mistakes in hospitals.
✅ Get your questions answered in our live Q&A sessions!

Whether you’re a student, a seasoned engineer, or just curious about the future of tech, this webinar is for you.

📅 Tomorrow, June 4

IEEE WIE AG Schenectady is going to organize WIE Distinguished Lecture on "Human System Engineering Initiatives: From Human Views to Human Readiness Levels" on 5 June 2026, Friday, 12-1 pm EDT. The speaker is Holly A. H. Handley, PhD, PE, the Interim Dean of the Interdisciplinary Schools and a Professor in the Engineering Management and System Engineering Department of Old Dominion University (ODU).

This talk discusses the role of Human System Engineering within the System Engineering discipline. It describes two initiatives that are enabling better integration of humans and systems. The Human Views comprise a system architecture viewpoint that provides a perspective on the human roles, activities, and information flows required by a complex system. The Human Readiness Levels assess the degree to which human-focused requirements are incorporated into design decisions and the readiness of a system to interact with its human operator. Together these two efforts encourage System Engineering for the total system by supporting a comprehensive integration of the human component into the systems engineering effort, which is critical to the design, development, and operation of successful systems. Current standards and applications of both initiatives will be included.
