Sinopsis
FOREWORD BY BRAD SMITH, VICE CHAIR AND PRESIDENT OF MICROSOFT
Discover how AI leaders and researchers are using AI to transform the world for the better

The authors also provide:
- Easy-to-follow, non-technical explanations of what AI is and how it works
- Examples of the use of AI for scientists working on mitigating climate change, showing how AI can better analyze data without human bias, remedy pattern recognition deficits, and make use of satellite and other data on a scale never seen before so policy makers can make informed decisions
- Real applications of AI in humanitarian action, whether in speeding disaster relief with more accurate data for first responders or in helping address populations that have experienced adversity with examples of how analytics is being used to promote inclusivity
- A deep focus on AI in healthcare where it is improving provider productivity and patient experience, reducing per-capita healthcare costs, and increasing care access, equity, and outcomes
- Discussions of the future of AI in the realm of social benefit organizations and efforts
An essential guide to impactful social change with artificial intelligence, AI for Good is a must-read resource for technical and non-technical professionals interested in AI’s social potential, as well as policymakers, regulators, NGO professionals, and non-profit volunteers.

De la contraportada
People around the world face significant problems that require creative and innovative solutions. New technologies often form the foundation of those solutions, offering fresh capabilities that promise to make short work of stubborn issues. One of these categories of tech, however, is having an even greater impact than most others: artificial intelligence.
In AI for Good: Applications in Sustainability, Humanitarian Action, and Health, a team of veteran data science and artificial intelligence (AI) leaders deliver an intuitive and non-technical exploration of how Microsoft is applying AI and machine learning to seemingly intractable problems around the world and achieving incredible results. In the book, you’ll explore the work of Microsoft’s philanthropic AI for Good Lab, which tackles global issues using methods that can be replicated and reapplied by other social entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and volunteers.
After discussing the basics of artificial intelligence—including what it is and how it works—the authors explain the real-world problems being mitigated and solved by AI. You’ll learn how Microsoft is using AI to solve problems in sustainability, humanitarian action, and health.
Perfect for techincal and non-technical professionals with an interest in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and social benefit organizations, AI for Good will also prove invaluable to policymakers, regulators, non-governmental organization (NGO) professionals, and nonprofit board members and volunteers. It’s an engrossing and insightful new take on how some of the world’s brightest people are harnessing cutting-edge tech to finally solve age-old problems.
