How to Make AI More Inclusive from the Farms to the Fields

#artificialintelligence 

Artificial intelligence (AI) is on the cusp of becoming democratic, inclusive, and useful to people living in under-served places in some very exciting ways. We believe an approach we call Mindful AI can help AI realize its potential to be more inclusive and human-centered, too. McKinsey's James Manyika interviewed Kevin to discuss concepts related to Kevin's recently published book, Reprogramming the American Dream: From Rural America to Silicon Valley – Making AI Serve Us All. The book draws on Kevin's personal experiences to show how AI can become more inclusive by helping people who live in under-served areas ranging from rural towns to working-class communities. For instance, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, Microsoft's FarmBeats program uses AI to improve farming.
