The AI industry is driving a technological revolution, impacting the global economy and society. AI transforms healthcare with diagnoses, finance with analytics, retail with recommendations, and manufacturing with automation. It also enhances transportation safety and aids environmental conservation. However, experts caution about the widening digital divide and the perpetuation of biases. To tackle these issues, ITU’s AI for Good platform facilitates the sharing of AI applications and expertise worldwide. In February 2024, we issued two open calls simultaneously: a call for AI use cases, and a call for AI scholars.
