Thanks to @ednewtonrex for his lecture tonight at @uiowa and @TippieIowa. I’m inspired by his suggestion that biggest advantage of genAI for education is personalized instruction.
Thank you to @superdatasci and @JonKrohnLearns for a chance to talk about reinforcement learning, MDPs, and vehicle routing.

Through COVID and beyond, we saw that professional students increasingly sought out online offerings. Our faculty and staff put in a tremendous effort to offer the same high quality online as we offered in person and these rankings reflect the great program they built.
NEW: The Iowa MBA was just ranked #29 Best Online MBA in today’s @usnews—up a whopping 44 spots! We also rose to #13 Best Online MBA in General Management, #20 Best Online MBA in Business Analytics, and #23 Best Online MBA for Veterans. 🙌

Happy New Year from Transportations Science!
The new year will bring new changes - on 1/1/24, Transportation Science will move to soft double-blind review. We have also adopted a recommended structured abstract for submissions. pubsonline.informs.org/page/…
This paper emerged from the need for benchmarking in another paper. It is odd how little the routing community has explored the impact that parking has on routing. The impact is particularly high in last-mile delivery. #parkingmatters
"Does parking matter? The impact of parking time on last-mile delivery optimization" with @anncampbelliowa and @barrettwthomas is now available online at Transportation Research Part E @Transport_ELS. #ParkingMatters

Okay I've spent all of a few hours thinking about copyright infringement by generative AI (note I've practiced copyright law before) and the correct treatment seems kind of obvious to me, so I'd like someone to tell me what I'm missing since I know it's hotly contested. 1/11
