Mohammad Hosseini, Northwestern UniversityTalk Title
Research ethics and generative artificial intelligenceAbstract
Scientists and engineers are increasingly using generative artificial intelligence in research. Some use cases have merely yielded efficiency gains while others have enabled new types of and directions in research that would be impossible otherwise. In this interactive session, the impacts of generative artificial intelligence on the overall integrity of research, and ethical ambiguities resulting from further integration of these tools in research, will be discussed.Biography
Mohammad Hosseini is an assistant professor of ethics at the Department of Preventive Medicine at Northwestern University in Chicago. Born in Iran, he obtained an MA in applied ethics from Utrecht University (Netherlands), and a PhD in research ethics and integrity from Dublin City University (Ireland).Research/Interest Areas:

Lars Bergstrom, GoogleTalk Title
Co-design and evolution of mobile hardware and operating systemsAbstract
Every year, owners of mobile devices want them to cost less, last longer, be upgraded for longer, increase security, and to run more demanding applications and services. In this talk, focusing on the Android ecosystem I'll cover some examples of how we work all the way from instruction set and hardware architecture up to operating system and application features in order to deliver on these demands. I will also discuss some of the critical gaps where today there are opportunities to greatly improve the way we measure, model and improve the products and software we design and build.Biography
Lars Bergstrom is a Director of Engineering at Google on the Android team, working on their platform tools and libraries. He manages the tools that update the Android operating system as well as the Java, C/C++, and Rust toolchains and the supporting libraries. He also serves as Google’s Corporate Director to RISC-V International and is Chair of the Board of Directors of the Rust Foundation. Before Google, he was at Mozilla Research, initially contributing to the Servo browser project and directing the integration of Rust into Firefox and the partner ecosystem. Later, he led Mozilla’s AR and VR work, shipping software and building OEM relationships on many different devices. He received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Chicago in 2013.Research/Interest Areas:TBA
