National Systems Conference on Super Intelligent Machines and Man
NSC is an annual event of the Systems Society of India (SSI) devoted to strengthening the systems movement and its applications. The first NSC was organized in 1973 to help create awareness of system engineering methodologies among planners, designers, builders and operation managers. NSC provides a forum for sharing knowledge and disseminating research findings. This year, the 41st National Systems Conference is being organized at Dayalbagh Educational Institute (DEI), Dayalbagh, Agra. Computers can now fly planes, deliver goods and parcels and drive cars. Computer algorithms anticipate our needs and decide which advertisements to show us. Machines create news stories without human intervention. Computers routinely trump humans in a number of complex games. Machine intelligence, along with the convergence of genetic engineering, quantum and nano technologies, has opened the doors to a new world. Scientists and philosophers alike are concerned about the potential implications of this emerging landscape, and wonder whether empowerment of super-intelligent machines may overpower human beings. It is our hope that NSC 2017 will help to throw light on this by facilitating a systemic cross fertilization of ideas, and stimulating interaction between various Systems research entities.
