We have inaugurated the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society Student Branch Chapter Inauguration on 14-03-2024 at 9:00 AM in the iMac Lab, SRMIST KTR. The event began with the introduction of the chief guests, Dr. S. Brindha and Harun Raseed Basheer, who graced us with their presence.

Presentation on IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society Student Branch Chapter by Dr. S. Brindha. In her presentation, Dr. S. Brindha shed light on the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society Student Branch Chapter, elucidating its core objectives and the myriad benefits it offers to its members. She conveyed the chapter's dedication to fostering a culture of continuous learning and research in the fields of systems, man, and cybernetics among its members. Through workshops, seminars, and conferences, students are provided with opportunities to enhance their knowledge and skills in these domains. One of the primary objectives she emphasized was to facilitate networking and collaboration among students, academics, and professionals in the field. By organizing networking events, mentorship programs, and collaborative projects, she highlighted the chapter's efforts to create a supportive ecosystem for knowledge exchange and professional growth. Dr. S. Brindha underscored the chapter's endeavor to encourage innovation and entrepreneurship among its members by providing resources, mentorship, and guidance. Through initiatives such as hackathons, startup competitions, and incubator programs, she emphasized how students are empowered to translate their ideas into impactful solutions and ventures. In line with IEEE's principles, she emphasized the importance of ethical and responsible use of technology. By organizing workshops, seminars, and awareness campaigns, she highlighted how students are educated on ethical considerations, societal implications, and regulatory frameworks governing emerging technologies. She stressed that members of the chapter gain access to a wide range of resources, including research publications, academic journals, and industry reports. They also benefit from exclusive opportunities such as internships, scholarships, and conference sponsorships, which enhance their academic and professional development. Dr. S. Brindha outlined numerous avenues for professional development, including technical workshops, soft skills training, and career counselling sessions. She highlighted how members have the opportunity to acquire new skills, expand their professional networks, and stay updated on the latest trends and advancements in the field. Leadership and Networking: Engaging with the chapter provides students with valuable leadership opportunities and networking connections, she conveyed. By serving on committees, organizing events, and representing the chapter at conferences, members develop essential leadership skills and build relationships that can open doors to future collaborations and career opportunities. Recognition and Awards: She emphasized that outstanding contributions and achievements by members are recognized and celebrated through awards, honours, and accolades. This recognition, she conveyed, not only serves as a source of motivation and encouragement but also enhances the visibility and credibility of members within the academic and professional community.

Presentation on GEN AI by Harun Raseed Basheer. GEN AI, short for Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) AI, represents a groundbreaking innovation in artificial intelligence, poised to reshape the landscape of machine learning. Developed by Ian Goodfellow and colleagues in 2014, GANs have introduced a new paradigm characterized by their remarkable ability to generate synthetic data closely mirroring real-world samples. He said that at its core, GANs operate through adversarial training, wherein two neural networks, the generator and the discriminator, engage in a dynamic interplay. The generator aims to produce data indistinguishable from authentic samples, while the discriminator endeavours to discern between real and fake data. Through iterative refinement, both networks enhance their performance, continually producing more realistic outputs. He conveyed that the impact of GEN AI transcends industries, driving innovation in creative content generation, data augmentation, personalized services, and scientific research. From generating lifelike images and music to enhancing machine learning models through data synthesis, GEN AI offers unprecedented opportunities for creativity, efficiency, and discovery. However, the proliferation of GEN AI also raises ethical and societal concerns, necessitating responsible development and regulation. Despite these challenges, GEN AI signifies a paradigm shift in artificial intelligence, promising transformative advancements and a future where AI serves as a catalyst for positive change across all facets of society.
