ABSTRACT
We would like to bring together some of the leading experts in artificial intelligence/computer science and social work/public health to discuss how we can use AI for social good. This forum/workshop will be collaborative in nature. We want to set an agenda, establish deepening partnerships, and work toward improving the world we live in–both big and small, locally and internationally.
