Dr. Kyle Miller moving on

[Artur Dubrawski]

Team,

I can't say I am pleased to announce what many of you already know: Kyle is
leaving the Auton Lab after almost 12 years of contributing tremendously to
our Team's research and administration.

His contributions had been invaluable in multiple ways. Just to name a few,
he spearheaded development of a collection of new algorithms for area
search and monitoring that substantially improved our Nation's radiation
safety. He came up with an algorithm to predict the emergence of novel
variants of Covid. He has done many more really useful and novel things,
including most recently leading ideation of distributed AI.

Kyle definitely will be missed in many ways. But we will work together to
bridge the gaps exposed by his departure. Just as in professional sports,
when a top player leaves their team, this opens space for younger players
to grow, and we have multiple such highly talented people in our team. So I
am sad, but not worried about the Team.

As for Kyle, he will stay with us till July 12th. Let us please make sure
we squeeze him out of all his know-how before that date. Also, once an
Autonian always an Autonian, so please join me in wishing Kyle great
success at his new professional home. But then also please join me in
making him super busy these last few days of his outstanding tenure here.
He will then proudly carry the resulting bumps and bruises with him,
together with a few joyful memories of his time at the Auton Lab.

Kyle: Thanks very much for all you have done, and good luck!

Artur
