Computers keep getting faster. But sometimes, taking full advantage of new computing power requires more than simply speeding up the way we've always done things. It requires rethinking the way we solve problems altogether.
Welcome to Resoundingly Human: The INFORMS Podcast where we share how operations research, analytics, data science, and AI are helping us better understand – and improve – the world around us.
Today's guest has spent his career exploring how we can solve some of the most complex optimization problems more effectively.
A professor at the Jacobs Technion-Cornell Institute at Cornell Tech, Andrea Lodi will be joining us in San Francisco as a plenary speaker at the 2026 INFORMS Annual Meeting, where he'll explore how GPUs could change not just the speed of Mixed-Integer Optimization, but potentially the algorithms themselves.
