Franklin Manchester, global insurance strategic advisor at SAS Institute explais how insurance leaders face a growing ethical responsibility to close the global protection gap — leveraging AI, data, and technology to build resilient communities while overcoming trust barriers and adapting to climate-driven risks.

This episode of AgNet NewsHour focuses on recent developments regarding the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). Hosts Sabrina Halvorson and Lorrie Boyer discuss a recent Texas court ruling that issued an injunction, pausing the enforcement of the CTA, which requires businesses to disclose beneficial ownership information. Statements from key agricultural organizations, such as the American Farm Bureau Federation and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association, are shared, expressing concerns over the constitutionality and implications of the Act. The discussion also delves into broader questions around business privacy versus public right-to-know, and the potential complexities if court rulings on the Act conflict.  Sabrina interviews Dr. Meg Schaeffer, an epidemiologist and the National Public Health Advisor for the SAS Institute. They discuss the recent USDA federal order regarding raw milk and its connection to avian influenza. With the emergence of H5N1 in California's raw milk samples, the USDA mandates nationwide raw milk testing to ensure food safety. Dr. Schaefer explains the significance and risks of the avian influenza virus, its impact on agriculture and public health, and the importance of pasteurization. Dr. Schaeffer addresses misconceptions about raw milk, its safety concerns, and calls for a temporary pause in raw milk consumption. The conversation emphasizes the collaborative effort needed among producers and government agencies to control the outbreak and prevent potential pandemic scenarios. Lorrie talks with Isaiah Kisica from the University of California Davis to discuss his research on groundwater nitrates in California. Isaiah, a professor specializing in land, air, and water resources, elaborates on his work focused on optimizing water management in agricultural systems to minimize environmental impacts. The conversation delves into his study, part of the USDA SEAP project, monitoring water quality in critical watersheds, specifically the Central Valley aquifer system. The study employs cutting-edge technology, including a VEDOS zone monitoring system, to track nitrate migration, revealing that nitrates can reach groundwater in as few as 10 days under specific climatic conditions. Isaiah discusses the implications of his findings for growers and water managers, highlighting advanced techniques, like high-frequency fertigation, and sensor development for real-time soil nitrate measurement. He also addresses the role of agricultural fertilizers in nitrate presence and the validation of regulatory models for groundwater protection.

This week we welcome back; Reggie Townsend, Vice President of Data Ethics at SAS Institute and member of President Biden's National AI Advisory Council. We discussed AI development and regulation in the US. He stressed balancing innovation incentives with government restraint and cited the CHIPS Act as key for AI infrastructure, though most investments are private. He highlighted that AI trustworthiness varies, suggesting risk-based assessments. Townsend underscored the importance of AI education and common standards. On regulation, he noted a risk-focused, citizen-protective approach with inevitable dissent. Lastly, he urged AI to remain a bipartisan issue, avoiding politicization similar to electricity, with current bipartisan support.  

In this episode, Kevin Werbach is joined by Reggie Townsend, VP of Data Ethics at SAS, an analytics software for business platform. Together they discuss SAS's nearly 50-year long history of supporting business's technology and the recent implementation of responsible AI initiatives. Reggie introduces model cards and the importance of variety in AI systems across diverse stakeholders and sectors. Reggie and Kevin explore the increase in both consumer trust and purchases when they feel a brand is ethical in its use of AI and the importance of trustworthy AI in employee retention and recruitment. Their discussion approaches the idea of bias in an untraditional way, highlighting the positive humanistic nature of bias and learning to manage the negative implications. Finally, Reggie shares his insights on fostering ethical AI practices through literacy and open dialogue, stressing the importance of authentic commitment and collaboration among developers, deployers, and regulators. SAS adds to its trustworthy AI offerings with model cards and AI governance services Article by Reggie Townsend: Talking AI in Washington, DC Reggie Townsend oversees the Data Ethics Practice (DEP) at SAS Institute.

Guest Joseph Castle Panelist Richard Littauer Show Notes In this episode, Richard welcomes Joe Castle, Executive Advisor for Strategic Partnerships and Technology at SAS, and he was previously featured on an episode in the FOSSY 2023 series podcasts. Today, they engage in conversations about various aspects of open source and Code.gov, exploring its history, budget changes, and challenges. Joe provides an overview of SAS Institute, its role in analytics and AI software, and its presence in the federal government. The discussion dives into the federal source code policy, its key aspects, and the allocation of the federal IT budget. They explore the idea of making government source code open source and the challenges associated with it, and there's a discussion on the importance of supporting open source projects and various initiatives in different countries and labs. Press download now to hear more! [00:01:23] Joe gives us an overview of SAS Institute, its focus on analytics and AI software, and its presence in the federal government and other sectors. [00:02:08] Joe talks about his background and how he became an advocate for open source software, especially Python, in both personal and professional context. He discusses his role at SAS, which involves promoting open source integration and education. [00:06:41] We learn about the history of Code.gov, which was born out of the U.S. federal source policy in 2016, and then Joe explains the three key aspects of the federal source code policy: creating a source code policy, updating acquisition language, and publishing an inventory of source code, including at least 20% as open source software. [00:10:03] Richard mentions the size of the federal IT budget and asks about the allocation of the remaining 93% of the budget. Joe explains that the 93% of the budget goes towards labor, infrastructure, commodity IT, and various IT-related expenses. [00:14:31] Richard inquires about the availability of a manifest listing all open source packages on Code.gov, and Joseph explains that Code.gov provides agency inventories of their source code, and each agency can decide what to include or exclude from the list based on various factors, including security. [00:16:31] Joe discusses his involvement with Code.gov, which started when he worked at the White House and volunteered to help implement the federal source code policy. [00:19:21] Richard asks about the budget for Code.gov and its changes over the years and Joe clarifies that Code.gov had a budget of about a million dollars a year for platform, staff, and related expenses. [00:20:09] Joe discusses the rise and fall of Code.gov, including policy changes and a decrease in funding, resulting in downsizing and limited maintenance of the website and code. [00:22:30] The role of the CIO at OMB is brought up and Joe explains that the focus of the federal CIO can shift with changing priorities and administrations. [00:23:23] Richard asks about how to reinvigorate Code.gov and whether it's possible to influence the CIO to prioritize it. Joe mentions an interaction with a Senate committee staffer and suggests that getting attention from key decision-makers is essential for pushing such initiatives. [00:27:34] Richard wonders if there are any internal efforts to track multiple contracts for the same vendors and improve code management. Joe tells us he's not aware of specific internal efforts but mentions the existence of similar projects in other places. [00:31:47] Joe notes that there weren't discussions about financially supporting open source projects at Code.gov, and the focus was on making the code available to the public and raising awareness of its existence. [00:32:52] Richard discusses the importance of supporting open source projects used by the government and mentions governmental efforts like the Sovereign Tech Fund in Germany. Joe talks about how certain agencies and labs, such as NASA and the Department of Energy, fund open source projects. He also mentions that he once considered making Code.gov an open source project separate from the government but didn't proceed with the idea, and he mentions the GitHub Government website. [00:37:06] Find out where you can follow Joe on the internet. Quotes [00:07:06] “Code.gov was born out of the U.S. Federal source code policy.” [00:18:37] “It's basically holistically the OSPO for the U.S. federal government.” Spotlight [00:37:45] Richard's spotlight is a book series he read called, Bloody Jack by L.A. Meyer. [00:38:27] Joe's spotlight is some great books he read: The Work by Wes Moore, Still Standing by Larry Hogan, and Bridgebuilders by William D. Eggers and Donald F. Kettl.

I dagens avsnitt av Mattesnack berättar Ulf Hertin och Mathias Lanner om sitt arbete med att skapa insikter ur de enorma mängder data som genereras inom tex sjukvården. ”Ska hälso- och sjukvården leva upp till sitt namn och gå mot att inte bara upptäcka och förstärka symptom, utan även kunna göra riskbedömningar och motverka sjukdom i tid så behövs AI. AI-modeller är egentligen matte som inte räknar linjära samband utan kausala samband och komplexa relationer som i sin tur ger oss ett mönster för att vi ska förstå sådant våra hjärnor inte kan räkna ut” säger Ulf Hertin. Förutom matematikens betydelse pratar de om analysfällan, gapet mellan data och verklighet och den ledarskapsutmaning som ligger i att få matematiken att genomsyra en organisation. Vilka goda exempel finns på branscher som ligger före? Och hur kan då data omvandlas till kundnytta?   Ulf Hertin och Mattias Lanner arbetar på mjukvarubolaget SAS Institute vars programvara fokuserar på avancerade dataanalysmodeller. De är först ut i Mattecentrums re-brandade podcast Mattesnack (tidigare namn HardubeSTEMtdig).

Michael King shared great insight into how to become a successful business leader in Japan. Mr. King's arrival in Japan may have been accidental but this did not stop him from having a long and prosperous career within Japan that has lasted 22 years. Despite originally being from Ohio, he began to work in the Asia Pacific 25 years ago within APAC in Sydney Australia before eventually moving to Japan as the General Manager for Sterling Commerce as Japan was the hot spot for business action and opportunity.   His time at Sterling was integral as it was his sink or swim moment. With no experience of business in Japan and leadership skills, he quickly adapted to the environment around him and began to grow and develop his skills. Mr. King began to understand the importance of hard work ethic. His work increased ethic allowed him to understand the sales process better and interact with Japanese business.   Despite not knowing the language at first, he did study, but he realised it was not necessarily important to know Japanese when working in Japan. Mr. King learnt that as a leader of a team to succeed, he needed to learn how to listen to his team and read the non-verbal cues his team would send his way and thus, developing trust.   After his time at Sterling and later Borland he became the President of Citrix Systems for 7 years which reinforced the necessity of listening to the team and creating trust. Through his experience as a leader, he came to Citrix knowing how he can grow the company, which he succeeded in doing. After a stagnant 5 years, he formed a vicious and successful sales team which led to the acceleration of revenue growth. Through this team, he learnt to become proactive and lead rather than sit and take orders which allowed the team to create widespread awareness of who Citrix are.   After his time at Citrix, he spent a year at Autodesk using his previous knowledge to help them change their business model to allow them to grow and increase revenue. While at Autodesk he learnt more about managing large groups of people and bridging the gap between the expectation of headquarters and the channels. After his short but fruitful year at Autodesk, he began working at the Japanese company Rakuten.   While at Rakuten Mr. King developed a more intense understanding of working in Japanese business and leading a team of 1200 people as the CIO. Mr. King had become interested in what it would be like as an end-user which drove him to Rakuten in combination with working for one of Japan's best CEO's and businessmen Hiroshi Mikitani. Mr. King learnt a variety of lessons at Rakuten such as using data to optimise customer experience and developing new solutions to problems. His time at Rakuten was the gap to where he is now at SAS as the President. At SAS he strives to drive the engagement of his team and consumers.   Mr. King's 22-year long career in Japan has taught him a range of valuable lessons that have helped him become the successful businessman he is today. He claims that in order to succeed in Japan you need to understand that accountability, listening, and trust are integral.

In its April 2018 decision in SAS Institute, Inc. v. Iancu, the U.S. Supreme Court held that when conducting an inter partes review, the U.S. Patent Office must determine the patentability of each of the claims challenged by the petitioner.   Jones Day partners Dave Cochran  and Matt Johnson explain how SAS Institute reverses prior interpretations of the inter partes review statute and discuss where it has already affected litigation strategies for petitioners and patent holders. (Running time: 24:51)   Visit Jones Day's PTAB Litigation Blog.

In a Supreme Court matter argued on behalf of software developer SAS Institute Inc., Jones Day successfully challenged part of how the U.S. Patent Office's Patent Trial and Appeals Board conducts its inter partes review proceedings. But that's just half the story. Jones Day partners Greg Castanias, Dave Cochran, and John Marlott explain why the Supreme Court's decision has significant implications for cases involving government agency overreach.

When Congress directs the Patent Office to resolve “any” patent claims a petitioner challenges, must the Patent Office resolve every challenged claim or does the Director have the discretion to only resolve some of the claims? And if the Director chooses to only resolve some claims, is that decision entitled to any Chevron deference? Those questions took center stage in SAS v. Iancu, resulting in a rare 5-4 decision in an intellectual property case. Writing for the majority, Justice Gorsuch found that “[i]n this context, as in so many others, any means every.” If Congress wanted to allow the Patent Office to select certain claims for inter partes review, it could have done so. Inter partes review was created as part of the 2011 Leahy-Smith America Invents Act, creating a litigation-like proceeding before the Patent Office where a petitioner can ask the Patent Office to reexamine one or more issued patent claims. If the Patent Office finds a question of patentability as to at least one challenged patent claim, it institutes inter partes review. Until now, the Patent Office interpreted the statute as allowing it to review some claims but decline to review others. A decision not to review claims is not judicially appealable, but a final decision on patentability in an IPR proceeding estops the petitioner from challenging validity in later district court litigation. Under the new regime, the Patent Office will be forced to review all challenged patent claims and issue a final written decision. This will change strategies for patent litigations. This will also create more work for the Patent Office, a point Justice Breyer emphasized in his dissent, arguing for “respect [for the] leeway which Congress intended the agencies to have.” This teleforum discusses both the statutory interpretation and Chevron deference issues raised by this case, as well as the practical implications for inter partes review proceedings before the Patent Office.

Wayne Thompson was into big data, before big data was cool. Now the world — even much of our GPU Technology Conference — revolves around the kinds of challenges the 25-year veteran of analytics software developer SAS Institute has made a career of helping enterprises master. How did that happen? We asked Thomson, Chief Data Scientist of SAS Data Science Technologies to talk about the big data, big models, and big computations driving deep learning, and to give us some perspective about what makes today’s deep learning technologies different.

This week's episode covers oral arguments and recent decisions with varying degrees of stakes.  Brett and Nazim discuss Abbott v. Perez (which might decide the fate of modern democracy) Jesner v. Arab Bank PLC (which may facilitate terrorism), SAS Institute v. Matal (which deals with paperwork), and Trump v. Hawaii (which has something to do with the President).  Law starts at (04:18).

"V" is the letter of the day today, as we are covering VOCABULARY this week on the Citizen's Guide to the Supreme Court.  Brett and Nazim cover three current cases which debate the meanings of statutory text, including Murphy v. Smith (how much is 25%?), Digital Realty Trust v. Somers (what is a whistle blower?), and SAS Institute v. Matal (what is a final written decision?).  Law starts at (04:25).

Oil States Energy Services v. Greene’s Energy GroupHas the administrative state gone too far into disputes over innovation and technology? That question animates Oil States Energy Services v. Greene’s Energy Group. The Supreme Court will hear arguments on Monday, November 27 over whether the Patent Trial & Appeal Board violates the Constitution by extinguishing private property rights through a non-Article III forum without a jury. SAS Institute v. MatalIn SAS Institute v. Matal, the question presented is, in the context of post-grant review of a patent under the America Invents Act (“AIA”), whether the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) must issue a final written decision on the validity of every patent claim challenged, or can the PTAB rule on only some of the patent claims challenged. This case involves a relatively confined question of statutory construction, but, assuming the Supreme Court does not dismantle the AIA’s post-grant review system in Oil States, SAS Institute has the potential to dramatically change post-grant patent challenges. The statute at issue, 35 U.S.C. 318(a), mandates: “If an inter partes review is instituted . . . , the Patent Trial and Appeal Board shall issue a final written decision with respect to the patentability of any patent claim challenged by the petitioner . . . .” The Patent Office interprets this provision to mean that the PTAB need provide a final written decision on only the claims the PTAB reviews in full. Thus, under current practice, a patent challenger can ask the PTAB to cancel all claims of a patent when filing an IPR petition, but the PTAB may institute full review of only some of the claims. The final written decision is limited to only those claims the PTAB reviews in full. Petitioner in SAS Institute challenges this practice, arguing that the plain text of the statute, along with the statutory text and purpose, requires a decision on all challenged claims. The case has important implications about the AIA process, the degree to which AIA review of patents creates finality to patent validity determinations, and the applicability of Chevron deference to the Patent Office’s rules and procedures.Featuring:Mr. Matthew J.

Leaders That Work In Their God-Given Strengths Are High Impact Click Here for the resources from our interview with Chad “I really believe God intended work to be a part of a thriving life. A life in which we flourish and experience well-being. It's so important that we work. It's just meaningful. But like anything else we can overdo it, we can do it in some misguided ways and what God intended as a good becomes a harmful aspect of life.” - Chad Hall Chad Hall felt called to the ministry at the young age of 19 years old. He started off as an associate pastor, became a pastor, and later became a staff member in the Baptist denomination. It was here that he stumbled upon the career of Christian coaching and drawing out other people’s expertise. On this episode, Chad will discuss strategies on how to be an effective coach. God is not only working in the church, but He is working in the business community and other non-profits. Being a ministry leader often does and should extend behind the church doors into our professional lives. Our outreach is through our “water cooler” conversations, our attitudes in team meetings, and the way we care for our co-workers.

Stephens, Mia – Exploration, Visualization and Data Analysis with JMP - JMP, developed in the late 1980's by a SAS Institute, is desktop software for data exploration and analysis. JMP is a stand alone product, with point-and-click graphical user interface. However, JMP can also be integrated with SAS, providing an easy to use and flexable front end. Intuitive, interactive and graphical, JMP lets researchers move quickly from numbers to meaningful statements about findings and results. JMP provides a complete array of statistical procedures, from basic to advanced, providing a vast framework for making rational decisions from data. All JMP output is dynamic and visual, making it easy to graphically explore data and interpret statistical results. In this tutorail Mia will demonstrate popular JMP tools for exploratory data analysis, including graph linking, Tabulate, Graph Builder®, Bubblr Plots, the data filter, and new mapping tools. She will provide an overview of inferential methods commonly used by behavior analysts, and will introduce JMP tools for modeling, data mining and simulation.

These should be heady times for Jim Goodnight founder and CEO of SAS Institute an analytics software and services firm. His company bucked the economic downturn to make 2009 its third most profitable year on record and it is currently working on cutting-edge solutions to problems that range from advising Macy's on product pricing to tracking a handful of endangered hippos in Africa. But during a recent presentation at Wharton Goodnight noted that his biggest priority these days is helping American schools turn out more scientists and mathematicians a goal he said is critical if the U.S wants to remain competitive.

Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast 86! The interview in the SPaMCAST 86 is with Bob Thames.  Bob is a co-author of Chasing Change: Building Organizational Capacity in a Turbulent Environment. Bob and I talked about change.  No one is immune from change therefore understanding how to deal with change makes good sense. Bob Thames has 34 years of experience in the technology and consulting industries.  He is currently a Senior Program Manager at SAS Institute, a leading global supplier of Business Analytics software solutions.  He has been with SAS for 7 years, with previous positions at KPMG LLP, IBM Consulting Group, Arthur Andersen Business Consulting, and Digital Equipment Corporation. He is also the founder and CEO of Pathways to Transformation LLC, an executive and life coaching company that helps individuals enhance their life purpose and step into greater balance and fulfillment in their lives.  Bob has been involved for the past 17 years in CAM-I, an international research consortium for cost, process, and performance management.  After observing the unacceptably high rate of failure in many organizational performance improvement initiatives over the years, he led an interest group within CAM-I to research best practices on facilitating organizational change and developing resilient change capabilities.  The results of this research effort culminated in the book Chasing Change, published by John Wiley and Sons.  Passionate about helping individuals navigate the turbulence of personal change, Bob became a Certified Professional Coactive Coach through Coaches Training Institute and a certified coach with Blueprint for Life.  Periodic blogs on personal change and contact information can be found on his website:   www.pathwaystotransformation.com Remember to check out GoTo Assist Express!
