"In my latest Institute column, I emphasize the importance of increasing our public outreach to amplify the global impact of #IEEE. Each one of us can be an ambassador for IEEE, telling people about how IEEE has helped us in our careers and benefits humanity. Let’s continue to celebrate our global impact.”- Tom Coughlin, 2024 IEEE President & CEO https://bit.ly/3KB8lH8

In today's digital landscape, the Internet has become a foundational force in fostering connectivity across the globe, enabling innovation at an unprecedented pace. Though the Internet was built to connect machines across disparate networks, it has grown into a worldwide hub for communication. It shares knowledge and promotes unity to help continuously create a better world for all.

AI is already making its way into many of our workplaces, helping us automate tasks and work more efficiently.

Reinforced concrete is one of the preferred methods of bridge construction worldwide, safely transporting millions of people each day. Behind the scenes, engineers are exploring new technologies to more accurately inspect these vital structures and ensure their continued structural integrity. Recently, 3D radar imaging has proven to be a promising tool that effectively identifies defects, even underneath the steel mesh cores of reinforced concrete.

Dating back to the 1990s, e-commerce in its current form has had unprecedented global impacts during a relatively short period. Though exchanging goods online dates back to the 1970s, these transactions still required money to be handed off in person. This all changed in 1994 when a college student made the first known credit card sale over the Internet, paving the way for today’s multi-trillion-dollar e-commerce industry. The historic transaction was for a copy of Sting's 1993 album Ten Summoner's Tales, selling for $12.48 plus shipping.
