On Feb. 24, Dr. Jeffrey McGough, head of the departments of electrical engineering and computer science at South Dakota Mines, gave Rushmore Rotarians some insight into the current state of AI and what we can expect in the future. He expects AI to continue to play a major role in our healthcare system, improving diagnoses and leading to better treatments. It will also be pivotal in the future of education. At the same time, McGough says the United States will need to prepare for the growing energy needs of AI which will require data centers.
Thank you, Dr. McGough, for the interesting talk!
