UCLA celebrates launch of Amazon-partnered center for AI research - Daily Bruin

UCLA collaborated with Amazon to launch a center for artificial intelligence research, education and outreach Oct. 29. The Science Hub for Humanity and Artificial Intelligence, based at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science, aims to address social issues and create positive impacts using artificial intelligence. The three main focuses of the Science Hub are combining research efforts, funding doctoral fellowships and continuing community outreach, as stated on the website. According to the UCLA press release, this is Amazon's first collaboration with a public university. UCLA received $1 million from Amazon to establish the hub this year, and the agreement may be renewed for a maximum of four more years.
