AI and Risk Mitigation: Call for Proposals

Best practices for ethical AI in healthtech, fintech, edtech and public services

The rapid development of AI technologies is making waves across industries in India and has brought about a paradigm shift. Confronting the hype, it is essential to think through the myriad of potential challenges that come with these technologies and how to navigate them. In an effort to build a safe space to discuss mitigating these challenges, Anthill Inside is organizing a series of sessions on AI and Risk Mitigation.

Under the AI and Risk Mitigation series, meet-ups, talks, and discussions on healthtech, fintech, agritech, edtech, and public services are organised. These are a mix of online and hybrid sessions. Takeaways from these sessions will be used to develop a knowledge repository in the form of practical guidelines and a self-regulated charter for Ethical AI.

We invite you to share your work with us and participate in these sessions, which can be in the form of product demos, talks, panel discussions, and workshops. This is a call for proposals for you to submit an abstract of your work in this area. The submissions will be reviewed by the editors on a rolling basis.
