Abstract Text:

In an age where artificial intelligence (AI) substantially reshapes the landscape of statistical analysis, it is crucial for statisticians to adapt and thrive amidst these transformations. This roundtable discussion aims to address the pressing need for statisticians to equip themselves with skills that transcend traditional boundaries and align seamlessly with the demands of the AI-driven world. We will delve into the core competencies that statisticians already possess, elucidating how these skills can be leveraged in the AI era. Furthermore, the discussion will spotlight emerging skills that are pivotal for statisticians to cultivate in order to remain relevant and impactful. Participants will gain insights into the evolving role of statisticians, acquiring a comprehensive understanding of the blend between conventional statistical techniques and cutting-edge AI methodologies. Join us to explore how embracing these challenges can empower statisticians to contribute meaningfully to the AI revolution.
