To help facilitate this, we have developed the Mindful AI approach to help businesses develop AI solutions that are more valuable because they are relevant and useful to the people they serve – rather than just the producers of the platform. We make AI technology more inclusive by working with under-represented communities through the diversity we need for our data programs (age, gender, groups, genre, geographies, ethnicities, cultures, and languages) to help our customers build more inclusive AI-based products and to reduce bias. Our expertise with AI localization makes it possible for our clients to make their AI applications more inclusive and personalized, respecting critical nuances in local language and user experiences that can make or break the credibility of an AI solution from one country to the next. By designing an AI application more mindfully from the start, a business will set itself up to be more effective and inclusive in its development of AI applications that help people no matter where they live. To help facilitate this, we have developed the Mindful AI approach to help businesses develop AI solutions that are more valuable because they are relevant and useful to the people they serve – rather than just the producers of the platform.

In a recent McKinsey Future of Work podcast interview with Microsoft Chief Technology Officer Kevin Scott, the CTO revealed that artificial intelligence (AI) is about to go prime time and will begin showing up in the most unlikely of places – including our nation's farm fields Once a mysterious science being beta-tested by only Fortune 100 companies, AI is rapidly becoming more democratic, inclusive, and utilitarian – to even those residing in under-served communities. It's also becoming a versatile tool that can branch out to myriad market sectors, including one of our oldest – agriculture. Scott recently published a book entitled Reprogramming the American Dream: From Rural America to Silicon Valley – Making AI Serve Us All. The findings come from his personal experiences with AI being implemented to service populations in rural towns and working-class communities, rather than just hi-tech cities or corner offices. The Wall Street Journal recently reported on Microsoft's FarmBeats program – a platform that leverages AI to improve farming outcomes.

LIKE ELITE athletes, dairy cows have exacting nutritional requirements. "If you're slightly up on protein, or down on carbs, you'll see a drop in milk production," says Robbie Walker, the boss of Keenan Systems, an Irish firm which makes feed-mixing wagons. For that reason, the firm's latest products have gone digital. With the help of Intel, a big American chipmaker, Keenan has developed a computer that can be attached to its wagons. Sensors on the wagon weigh what the farmer puts into the mixer and compare it with what the recipe calls for.
