Washington State University’s Carson College of Business now has opportunities for those looking to bolster their skills or break into new roles in the realms of artificial intelligence, automation, analytics and project management. 

A Medicare pilot program that uses artificial intelligence to make coverage decisions will continue to be used in Washington state for the time being. 

For the first time in years, we have a realistic opportunity to move much faster, without sacrificing safety or effectiveness. The only unacceptable option now is inaction.

Environmental impact statements can take federal agencies months or years to draft. A new tool from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and OpenAI is testing whether AI can speed that process up – without cutting corners on rigor.

A Swiss company’s plans for a zero-carbon fertilizer plant and a data center north of Richland are moving forward despite citizens voicing concerns about the projects. 

Hanford’s 222-S Laboratory celebrates 75 years as nuclear waste cleanup accelerates and DOE moves toward a new operating contract.

Be careful what you ask AI, because what you ask and what AI answers may come back to bite you later.

Months after denying a strategy shift, DOE is advancing a plan to grout more Hanford tank waste instead of vitrifying it – drawing state and watchdog pushback.

Software development consistently ranks among the jobs that artificial intelligence is most likely to displace over the next decade, with customer service, graphic design, accounting and data entry also topping the vulnerability lists. Entry-level workers and those in Generation Z — people in their teens and 20s today — also could be hit hard, as experts predict AI will most easily automate the type of repetitive work they tend to do starting out.

Thousands of Tri-Cities workers at the Hanford nuclear site and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are watching a federal budget process that could determine whether a second consecutive year of deep job cuts can be avoided.
