FOREWORD BY BRAD SMITH, VICE CHAIR AND PRESIDENT OF MICROSOFT
Discover how AI leaders and researchers are using AI to transform the world for the better.
In AI for Good: Applications in Sustainability, Humanitarian Action, and Health, a team of veteran Microsoft AI researchers delivers an insightful and fascinating discussion of how one of the world's most recognizable software companies is tackling intractable social problems with the power of artificial intelligence (AI). In the book, you’ll see real in-the-field examples of researchers using AI with replicable methods and reusable AI code to inspire your own uses.
A limited supply of the book will be available in the Bookstore. Reserve your copy by emailing Curry Brinson.
