Hi All,<br>
<br>
I'm interested in participating. For moving forward, I recommend a
half-day to day-long retreat with short talks followed by discussion
sections on:<br>
1. AI basics (level set participants)<br>
2. AI in research (emphasis on various plant bio applications)<br>
3. AI in teaching <br>
4. AI Ethics<br>
5. What's next in AI (futurism) <br>
<br>
Best,<br>
