Keynote: Every Five Decades: A New Field of Engineering
summary
Michael I. Jordan argues that machine learning is spawning a new engineering discipline focused on combining data, inference, and computation to build large-scale systems for domains like commerce, transportation, entertainment, and health care. He says new mathematical and conceptual tools — beyond the computational and inferential foundations — are required to make systems that are understandable, robust, transparent, safe, and useful, and that this field will center on data, decisions, and human context rather than physical materials.
