Prof. Lee will serve as a plenary speaker at the AI for Manufacturing Workshop, taking place May 27–28, 2026, at NIST in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

The workshop will convene stakeholders from manufacturing, automation, and digital systems integration sectors to gather inputs on: (1) real-world and emerging use cases of AI in manufacturing—with emphasis on foundation models, generative AI, and agentic AI; (2) current challenges and barriers to implementing AI in manufacturing systems and engineering workflows; and (3) measurement science and standards needs to support reliable, resilient, and interoperable AI-enabled manufacturing systems throughout the engineering and production lifecycle. The workshop will also focus on specific measurement science and standards needs to enable productive human-AI teaming in manufacturing.
