Launched in 2021, the Intel® AI Global Impact Festival is an annual Digital Readiness celebration for next-generation technologists and teachers, as well as academia, ecosystem, and government partners to showcase AI innovation and impact, and has more than 25+ countries from across the world participating.
The Festival provides audiences with opportunities to celebrate and learn about AI, and for students, with impactful, responsible ai projects that are solving real problems in their communities, to compete in the Global AI Changemakers competition, which this year had over 1000 entries from around the world. Expert judges then assessed the 100 shortlisted entries on their social impact, alignment with UN Sustainable Development Goals, responsible and innovative AI development, and creative use of Intel’s technologies.
The winners of the AI Changemakers competition have been announced and are available for viewing on the Festival platform, which will remain live until 25 October.
Of the winners, Dawn Jones, Vice President of Corporate Social Impact, Intel, Intel Foundation President, said: “Your creative diverse and innovative minds are enriching lives, you are all true superstars making an impact in your communities and worldwide.”
