Keough School faculty member Yong Suk Lee, a Kellogg faculty fellow, recently co-authored an article in Safety and Health titled, “AI tools show promise in improving manufacturing worker safety: study.”
The article discusses his research, which demonstrates how AI tools can be used to improve worker safety in manufacturing and service industries by analyzing complex data.
Lee adds that, “As AI adoption in industrial contexts grows, practitioners will need to balance the tradeoffs between using complex, expensive general-purpose models and opting for fine tuned models that better meet industry needs.”
Lee is an associate professor of technology, economy, and global affairs in the Keough School of Global Affairs. His research focuses on AI and robotics in relation to labor economics and entrepreneurship.
