Discussion paper proposes user-centric AI support for photon science, enhancing workflows and collaboration among facilities.
Key Points
The aim is to redefine user support and data workflows in photon science for the SPring-8-II era, shifting from facility-driven access to user-oriented guidance.
Updates made to previous versions of the discussion paper including the introduction of a Photon Science Portal.
Reorganization of discussions on AI-enabled support, clarifying its role in user navigation and proposal preparation.
Inclusion of an appendix with practical implementation notes for AI support, focusing on multi-facility perspectives.
Proposal of a user-first support method that emphasizes scientific and industrial questions before facility choices.
Clarification that the AI concierge acts as a support tool, not a replacement for expert judgment or decision-making processes.
Presentation of enhanced data governance measures to protect proprietary information while supporting user needs.
