We are glad to welcome Mahmoud Ajami, who is joining the group as a PhD student in collaboration with XFEL to explore the role of AI in experimental operations. He will be co-supervised with Steffen Hauf.
Mahmoud's research will focus on the development of AI co-pilots ('whispering AIs') to support free-electron laser (FEL) experiments by identifying issues and suggesting actions. In the future, the developped tools could serve as a knowledge assistant and potentially steer parts of the experiment through human interaction.
