AI for Good: A discussion on addressing real-world problems with AI
Much of the conversation about AI these days is focused on cutting-edge technologies, like generative AI, and the potential risks these technologies could pose to society. At the same time, AI is one of our most powerful tools when it comes to addressing the biggest challenges we face in the areas of climate change, public health, and disaster management. AI has already been deployed as a key component of many real-world applications that are having a positive impact on things like making renewable energy sources a more viable alternative to fossil fuels, providing access to reliable information in more of the world’s languages, and allowing for more effective planning, logistics, and resource allocation in the event of a disaster.
Join in on our panel of experts with Andrew Ng, Robert Monarch, Juan Lavista Ferres, and Iva Gumnishka to learn more about how AI is impacting the world in a positive way.
This event is inspired by DeepLearning.AI’s specialization, AI For Good, created in collaboration with Microsoft’s AI For Good lab and instructor Robert Monarch, who has developed AI systems for public health and disaster response efforts around the world.
