What’s the “coolest”/ most “wow-factor" thing you’ve seen so far in with the use of AI in the sector you work in?
Using AI to bring a sense of connection to those most often forgotten in society, our ageing population.
What’s your biggest fear in relation to the application of AI?
There’s absolutely no consensus on which direction will application of AI take us in, will humans still be in control and benefit from AI or will they be controlled by AI. Hence while developing the technology, one should be very much goal oriented and make AI transparent. Take it slow but take it thoughtfully so that we don't steer in an unfortunate direction.
How do you think AI will cause human contact to change in the future?
It will improve human contact by limiting the need for repetitive work

Bringing awareness to the role of AI in agriculture is my personal goal and I'm most excited about sharing our vision
