SUMMARY:The Future of Work in the Age of AI: March Slugs and Steins with Dean PK Agarwal
DESCRIPTION:The Future of Work in the Age of AI: Chaos\, Adaptation\, or Growth? \nArtificial intelligence has reignited an old debate: are we approaching mass technological unemployment\, or simply the next phase of economic evolution? Public discourse swings between dystopian predictions of human obsolescence and confident assurances that “new jobs will replace old ones.” This lecture steps back from speculation and examines evidence. Drawing on economic history and disruptive change\, going back to the wheel and the printing press to electrification\, computers\, and the internet—we explore how societies have repeatedly confronted disruptive change: moments when existing skills\, institutions\, and expectations no longer matched the pace of innovation. The goal is not to predict the future\, but to provide a framework for thinking about it—what AI may automate\, what it may amplify\, and why the real disruption may be the speed of adaptation rather than the disappearance of work itself. The talk concludes with implications for higher education\, workforce development\, and how individuals can remain resilient in an age where intelligence is no longer exclusively human. \nREGISTER \n

SUMMARY:CM Seminar - "From Sibelius to Game: Crafting Adaptive Music for 'Kingdom Come: Deliverance'"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Adam Sporka \nDescription: “This talk explores the technical and creative processes behind the music of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II\, where I served as a music programmer\, and soundtrack contributor. Using our proprietary Sequence Music Engine and music logic module\, we authentically scored the game’s 1400s Bohemia setting with segment-based adaptive music driven by in-game variables. Our workflow centers around the notation program Sibelius and our custom tool Converdi\, which streamlines the production by converting the score symbols to preliminary MIDI streams per individual VSTs and by extracting the precise timing data necessary for the segment transitions. This enabled us to spend more time on the creative aspects of music and less time on production and implementation.” \nThe key takeaways from the talk are as follows: \n* Production should start with a complete score\, and not just the MIDI exports therefrom\n* Custom automation tools can streamline the music creation workflow and reduce the production time\n* Resequencing is more suitable for classical and medievalesque music than layering\n* Rapid music prototyping allows for early testing of adaptive music directly in the game \nBio: Adam Sporka is a software developer by trade\, a musician by domain\, and a scientist by approach. As a researcher\, developer\, and educator in game audio\, he places a special focus on interactive music. He has served as the technical music director for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II (Warhorse Studios) and is the author of the Sequence Music Engine\, a proprietary adaptive music middleware used in both games. As a composer\, he contributed to the soundtrack of both Kingdom Come: Deliverance games\, writing some of the most memorable medievalesque and early renaissance pieces on the soundtrack. Currently\, he teaches game audio at the University of California\, Santa Cruz. He received his Ph.D. and habilitation in human-computer interaction from the Czech Technical University (Czech Republic) and was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Trento (Italy). He has published more than 50 articles in the proceedings of international conferences and academic journals. Adam is currently appointed as a principal engineer at Embody\, a Sunnyvale-based game audio software company focused on the commercial applications of the head-related transfer function. \nHosted by: Professor Christina Chung \nWhen: March 2\, 2026 from 12:30PM to 1:30PM \nLocation:  \nIN-PERSON @  SVC 3212. \nViewing room @ UCSC Main Campus\, E2-280. \nLUNCH WILL BE PROVIDED AT BOTH LOCATIONS!

SUMMARY:How promotions actually happen (and why hard work alone isn’t enough)
DESCRIPTION:Most professionals are told a simple formula: work hard\, deliver results\, and your career will naturally advance. Yet many find that after years of strong performance\, progress slows—responsibilities grow without recognition\, and promotions go elsewhere. \nThe issue is rarely capability\, but a misunderstanding of how advancement really works. Each career stage has different expectations: the skills that earn a first role aren’t the same ones that move someone into management or leadership. As organizations grow more complex—and AI makes execution easier to replicate—doing your job well is no longer enough. Advancement depends on how your work connects to the broader mission\, how it’s perceived\, and whether you’re already operating at the next level. \nThis session offers an inside look at why capable people plateau—and why others accelerate. \nBring your thoughts and experiences. This is a discussion-based workshop—please come ready to engage. \nThis event is part of the Dean Conversations: Pathways to professional success series. \nClaim your seat!
