Head of the Studies Sub-Directorate
Professional Summary
Dr. Prodromos E. Atlamazoglou is of the Head of the Studies Sub-Directorate of the Directorate of Infrastructure and Environmental Protection (C2) of the Hellenic Army General Staff, Ministry of National Defence. He is also a Scientific Associate at the Institute of Continuing Education (IDE) of the Hellenic National Defence General Staff (HNDGS) and a Visiting Expert in International Educational Collaborations at the Department of Business Administration and Organizations of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. He received his PhD in Electrical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens in 1997. The research interests of Dr. Atlamazoglou in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) focus on the synergy of Emotional Intelligence and AI and the creation of Groups of Centaurs, mixed sets of people and AI. In addition to AI, his research activity also covers computational electromagnetism, three-dimensional vector finite elements, radiation of coated antennas in lossy spaces, cryptology and especially cryptanalysis and parallel computing. He has taught Microwaves and Antennas at the Department of Electronics of the Higher School of Pedagogical and Technological Education (ASPETE) and the course of Introduction to Cryptography at the Military Academy of Telecommunications and Electronics for Signals Officers (STHAD).
My research focuses on the interaction and synergy between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Emotional Intelligence, exploring how each can enhance the other and contribute to the formation of so-called 'Centaur Teams'—hybrid human-AI collaborations capable of developing innovative solutions better than either humans or AI alone. As an engineer in the Directorate of Infrastructure and Environmental Protection of the Hellenic Army, I face daily challenges related to reducing the carbon footprint of military infrastructure and integrating renewable energy sources, particularly photovoltaic systems. AI serves as a valuable tool in addressing these challenges more effectively.
I already observe my colleagues leveraging AI to prepare technical specifications for military infrastructure, and I am actively working on developing local, offline Co-pilot-style assistant systems for engineers. These systems would handle technical, legal, and bureaucratic matters. I envision a society where AI is not limited to task automation but actively promotes emotional intelligence in individuals, unleashes human creativity by contributing to the development of new therapies and products, and allows people to focus on more meaningful aspects of their work and the full realization of their potential.
