Automation and The Weather with Lisa Seacat DeLuca
Jerry is joined by IBM Distinguished Engineer, self-published author, and the most prolific inventor in the history of IBM (with over 800 patents), Lisa Seacat DeLuca. They discuss how AI-powered automation helps businesses understand the environment and how they can use that data to tackle challenges related to climate change, sustainability, and everyday business operations. Lisa shares an example from the airline industry, where flights still use a paper-based flight manifest that a pilot must sign, and she explains how much faster and more accurate the process could be if reinvented with AI-powered automation. She also makes predictions for how automation will play an even bigger role in public health as the world transitions to the next normal, with technologies coming together to help us be safer as a society.
