The last few years have seen a huge growth in the capabilities and applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and autonomous systems. Hardly a day goes by without news about technological advances and the societal impact of the use of AI. AI is changing the way we work, live and solve challenges. For example, it can improve healthcare, protect elephants from poachers, and work out how broadband should be distributed.

Fake news is a salient societal issue, the subject of much recent academic research, and, as of 2019, a ubiquitous catchphrase.
假新闻是一个突出的社会问题，也是最近许多学术研究的主题，截至2019年，也是一个无处不在的流行语。

We are happy to present the annual activity report of the ACM Special Interest Group on AI (ACM SIGAI), covering the period from July 2018 to June 2019. The scope of ACM SIGAI consists of the study of intelligence and its realization in computer systems (see also its web-site at sigai.acm.org). This includes areas such as autonomous agents, cognitive modeling, computer vision, constraint programming, human language technologies, intelligent user interfaces, knowledge discovery, knowledge representation and reasoning, machine learning, planning and search, problem solving and robotics. Members come from academia, industry and government agencies worldwide. ACM SIGAI recently added two new ACM SIGAI chapters, namely one professional chapter in Laguna Nigel (USA) and one student chapter at the SRM Institute of Science & Technology in Chennai. ACM SIGAI also added two new officers this year to be able to serve its membership better, namely Iolanda Leite from the Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden) as second newsletter editor-in-chief and Marion Neumann from Washington University in St. Louis (USA) as diversity officer, thus increasing diversity in the ACM SIGAI leadership committee by increasing both the number of international officers and the number of female officers and also furthering the internationalization of the ACM SIGAI newsletter. Marion will be covering diversity also as part of the ACM SIGAI newsletter. ACM SIGAI started officers meetings at major AI conferences already in 2018 and continued the new practice in 2019 (so far at the AAAI Conference), in addition to all-officers teleconferences and a monthly ACM SIGAI leadership teleconference.

Welcome to the third issue of the fifth volume of the AI Matters Newsletter. With this issue, we want to welcome our new SIGAI Executive Committee. Elections were completed this Spring, and we have a new leadership team in place. Sanmay Das of Washington University in St. Louis (former vice-chair) is the new chair, Nicholas Mattei of Tulane University the new vice-chair, and John Dickerson of the University of Maryland the new secretary-treasurer. Nicholas and John were formerly active as the appointed AI and Society and Labor Market officers respectively. Sven Koenig will transition into the role of past-chair, and continue to serve on the EC in that role.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly growing field; one that is mysterious to the general public. The mention of the word AI fills the imaginations of many with thoughts of talking robots, jobs being replaced, and possibly even the destruction of mankind. Perhaps imaginations are running wild due to, perhaps driven by the loose definition of AI as systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence that allows Hollywood to take some creative license. The experts in the field tend to work directly with AI and often for large companies, allowing for the imagination and news headlines to be where the public gets their information. Many wonder if this new technology is going to be an overall benefit to society or if it will bring unmitigated disaster. When the imagination runs wild, instead of understanding, news stories can perpetuate concerns and anxieties rather than hope and optimism.
