Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence are buzzwords that have infiltrated the materials science space, as many believe these tools will change the field as we know it. We’ve seen previous guests strongly recommend learning about ML models in order to become more efficient materials scientists, but with that, we have to realize the limitations of ML and AI as well.

Before we introduce our guest, check out our free professional development guide for materials scientists and engineers! https://www.subscribepage.com/mseprofessionaldevelopmentguide

Today’s guest is Chris Borg, Research Scientist at Citrine Informatics. In this episode, he explains materials informatics and applications of machine learning in MSE.

In this conversation, we discuss the following topics:
What is materials informatics?
The limitations of machine learning and artificial intelligence
How ML can facilitate improved materials selection
Will machine learning ever fully replace materials scientists?
The challenge of differentiating “good” and “bad” data points
The process of using AI in MSE-related applications
Machine learning advice for future materials engineers
