You Are Real—Guide Artificial Intelligence

Minds Shaping the Future

Identify a real problem you encounter in daily life, education, healthcare, campus life, the environment, or social life. Design how artificial intelligence can contribute to solving it. Plan what AI will do, where people will step in, and how the system will remain trustworthy.

Most important criterion

Artificial intelligence must not be the solution itself; it must be one part of the solution.
