The good AI can do

One is improving women's access to pre-natal healthcare in the Democratic Republic of Congo. "A pregnant woman has to walk 17 hours to her nearest, rural, prenatal clinic to get a check-up. What if she could get a diagnosis on her phone instead?" asked Sharma. Another example is that of a woman in South Africa who is suffering domestic abuse. Sharma asked: "What could AI do for those one in three women? If it isn't safe to talk out loud, they could get an AI service to raise the alarm or get financial and legal advice."
