Cape Town AI | October Meetup

ABOUT

AI provides one of the greatest opportunities for humanity. Yet the access to its expertise and resources is limited. AI’s development is driven by a few, directing the way AI is applied not taking into account the diverse needs. Even more, the driving forces of AI’s development don’t reflect the world’s cultural and environmental diversity, risking abuse and imbalance. Therefore City.AI started out as an organization to enable everyone to apply AI by democratizing its design, development and use. This ensures diversity and responsible development and application of AI can actually happen. It’s our goal to be active giving AI practitioners around the world a voice to reflect their cultural and environmental backgrounds in its development and provide the relevant resources and knowledge applying AI. Since 2016, City.AI has emerged into the world’s leading non-profit connecting the AI community globally and supporting local AI ecosystems to develop further.

Join us for our October #CapeTownAI meet up where we will be joined by Renée Cummings, American Criminologist and AI Influencer. Renée will chat to us about Inclusion and Diversity in AI: Criminal Justice. We will also be joined by Neil du Toit, Data Strategist at University of Cape Town.
