In a recent paper, Daniel Reed, Dennis Gannon, and Jack Dongarra, have started an important discussion about HPC, its future, and its impact on American competitiveness. We welcome Dan Reed as a special guest of the @HPCpodcast to go a level deeper. Dan is Presidential Professor of Computational Science at the University of Utah and a thought leader and luminary of supercomputing. [audio

We continue our discussion of AI in Science with Rick Stevens of Argonne National Lab. In addition to the new ways AI can help advance science, we also discuss ethics, bias, robustness, security,and explainability of AI, and whether AI can replace scientists. We end with a snapshot of Quantum Information Science (QIS).
