"IEEE members, your voice matters. There is still time to cast your vote and help choose the future leadership of IEEE.” - Tom Coughlin, 2024 IEEE President & CEO

AI-driven attacks are far beyond what human defenders can handle alone. #IEEE Impact Creator Eleanor Watson explains why automated threats require automated defenses. Learn more on IEEE Transmitter: https://bit.ly/46j1Ang

This week we’re recognizing #IEEE Member Subodha Charles, affiliated with IEEE Student Activities Committee and IEEE Young Professionals. Subodha has been an IEEE member since 2011, joining as a student within the Sri Lanka section. Since then, he has grown to become a leader who helped uplift his section and others, fostering industry collaboration and member growth, particularly for students and young professionals. Subodha’s background in electronics and telecommunication engineering, along with his passion for entrepreneurship, led him to co-found a startup in his native Sri Lanka that is now an industry leader in the energy sector. Upon completing his Ph.D. in the United States, Subodha returned to Sri Lanka to focus on business growth and continued research in his areas of interest.

IEEE Day is right around the corner on 1 October! Each year, #IEEEDay celebrates the first time that IEEE members from around the globe gathered to exchange technical ideas and knowledge in 1884. Years later, this legacy of collaboration continues with events, contests and more. Are you ready to participate? See how you can get involved: https://ieeeday.org/

Yesterday at New York Climate Week 2024, #IEEE and IEEE Young Professionals hosted a key event following the United Nations Summit of the Future. "A Multi-Stakeholder Dialogue on Climate Action: Young Practitioners and Their Role in the Technology Transformation” brought industry and academic leaders together to discuss collaborative strategies for advancing climate action and sustainable development goals, with speakers from IEEE, International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), World Meteorological Organization (WMO), Student Energy, International Youth Nuclear Congress (IYNC) and more. https://bit.ly/4ehZWWu #IEEEYP #UNFCCC #NYClimateWeek

Few technologies have inspired the amount of ongoing discussion, and sometimes, controversy as artificial intelligence (AI). Read about some of AI’s risks and rewards, as well as considerations for oversight and future evolution in this article from IEEE Educational Activities: https://bit.ly/3N3uHSJ

How do you design AI systems with sustainability in mind? Join our upcoming IEEE Technology Center for Climate (ITCC) webinar, featuring a panel of experts including IEEE Young Professionals Polat Goktas and Yuhan Zheng, as they explore the topic: "Factoring Sustainability in Building AI Systems." While ethical considerations throughout the lifecycle of AI systems have been at the heart of responsible AI and AI-related regulatory frameworks, the aspect of sustainability is a more recent addition. In this session, we’ll dive into the growing need to incorporate environmental considerations right from the design phase of AI systems. Register now for the 26 September webinar! https://bit.ly/3zwqXpU #IEEE #SustainableAI #CleanTechSolutions #AI

Deepfakes have become more realistic and deceptive due to increasingly advanced AI models, necessitating the need for more robust defense mechanisms. #IEEE Impact Creator Inderpreet Kaur shares a real-world example of the potential harm that could result from deepfakes.

Generative AI models have enabled deepfakes to be more convincing and lifelike than ever. However, AI-based detection technologies have been following suit with increased capabilities and accuracy rates.

Generative AI is becoming increasingly adept at mimicking reality. Unfortunately, cybercriminals have caught on, using the technology to make malicious online behavior more deceptive. #IEEE Impact Creator Steven Furnell shares some new vulnerabilities to look out for.
