MKAI January Technical Forum | AI and Environmental Sustainability | Part 1: Earth Observations Series Rationale: The race to protect the earth gets more critical every year. The world is set to see its warmest five years on record – in a trend which is likely to continue – and is not on track to meet agreed targets to keep global temperature increase well below 2 °C or at 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels. Atmospheric […]

Featuring speakers from Google and IBM, this MKAI Inclusive Forum discusses the big themes around trust of and in AI. The January event focusses on the issue of fairness; touching on data, biases, algorithms, society and inclusivity. As always the MKAI Forums are open to everyone from all walks of life. Our expert speakers make the subject approachable and comprehensible to help all of us improve our AI-fluency and understanding of the domain. Speaker 1: […]

Focussed on the field of bioinformatics, this workshop is suitable for learners with a cursory introduction to programming and familiarity with the fundamentals of Python. What is Bioinformatics? Bioinformatics is a science field that is similar to but distinct from biological computation, while it is often considered synonymous to computational biology. Biological computation uses bioengineering and biology to build biological computers, whereas bioinformatics uses computation to better understand biology. How is AI used in Bioinformatics? […]

With the concentration of people and assets in urban areas, city leaders must develop climate resilience to safeguard development gains and accelerate poverty reduction. On our global journey to environmental sustainability and increasing access to opportunity, at the MKAI technical forum in February, we seek to discover how data and AI can help to protect the most vulnerable people, assets and businesses in developing cities.

In part 2 of our 'Trust in the age of AI series', four renowned speakers will share their research and ideas around how we can help AI to be more understandable. Distinctly different from the idea of Explainable AI, Understandable AI is about communicating the risks to users and customers and about building trust and privacy by design into data collection and AI models. 'Understandability' is about a business culture of transparency and openness towards […]

Series Rationale: The race to protect the earth gets more critical every year. The world is set to see its warmest five years on record – in a trend which is likely to continue – and is not on track to meet agreed targets to keep global temperature increase well below 2 °C or at 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels. Atmospheric CO2 concentrations showed no signs of peaking and have continued to increase to new […]

March Forum Objectives: At the MKAI Inclusive AI forum in March, we seek to discover how companies will benefit from being more open and transparent about how and why they collect data, how they use it and whom they sell it to. Organisations, departments and even whole cities are seeing the benefit of data disclosure, but what are the long term implications of this on privacy, security, convenience and cost. As always the MKAI Forums […]

This MKAI Inclusive AI Forum Series discusses the big themes around Responsible AI. The April event examines the business rationale for ethical AI April Forum Rationale: A typical commercial AI model is not usually developed to favour privacy, explainability and fairness. The general consensus has been that increased model performance delivers increased profits. And it can be the case that a black-box model has accuracy advantages over a glass-box model or a model that includes […]
