#curationproject

This exhibition was born from a desire to cut through the noise and fear surrounding AI. I aimed to dispel common misconceptions and present a more nuanced and balanced perspective, highlighting both the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

I explored how AI is revolutionizing fields like medicine, education, and the workforce, offering solutions to pressing challenges and enhancing human capabilities. I also acknowledged the legitimate concerns surrounding AI, recognizing the need for responsible development and ethical implementation.

While the exhibition may have come to an end, the exploration of AI continues. I urge you to carry the knowledge and insights gained from this exhibition into your everyday lives. Continue to engage with AI, learn from it, and challenge yourself to think creatively about how it can be used to create a brighter, more equitable future for all.

Tackling Climate Change:

Use of AI: Visualizing future flood and wildfire effects, aiding climate decision-making, monitoring forests, building digital twins for policy impact assessment.

Improving Access to Nutrients and Water:

AI Applications: Identifying nutrient deficiency locations, predicting toxic lead pipes in U.S. cities for clean water access.

Detecting Deadly Weapons:

AI's Role: Using drones and machine learning to detect buried land mines for safe disposal, detecting threats via drone-inspired AI algorithms.

Outracing Video Gamers:

AI Achievement: Defeating human champions in a racing video game, aiding game developers and potentially inspiring self-driving car research.

Diagnosing Life-Threatening Health Problems:

AI in Healthcare: Successfully testing an AI program for sepsis detection, reducing complications and deaths; diagnosing bacterial infection in olive trees using algorithms.

Cracking the Protein Code:

AI Breakthrough: DeepMind's AlphaFold predicting molecular structures of nearly all known proteins, a monumental achievement in biology.

Reviewing Wine and Beer:

AI Assistance: Language-generation AI summarizing reviews to help in choosing beverages, potential expansion to other product reviews.

Predicting Viruses with Pandemic Potential:

AI's Pandemic Role: Analyzing viral mutations to predict new variants, aiding in managing COVID-19 and identifying potential virus jumps from animals to humans.

Busting Illegal Drug Development:

AI in Drug Regulation: Using algorithms to identify potential designer drugs, preemptively enabling governments to regulate these substances.

Protecting Biodiversity:

Strategic plays for business leaders to mitigate bias in AI span three buckets - teams, AI model, and corporate governance and leadership.

Expanding the talent search

AI can help employers identify talented workers who may not have a college degree.

AdeptID has developed AI software that utilizes machine learning and predictive analytics to effectively identify skilled candidates without college degrees. AdeptID's model addresses potential biases by testing for algorithmic fairness and ensuring transparency and security measures.

2. Illuminating career pathways

AI can personalize career navigation by aligning an individual's skills, experiences, and aspirations with suitable work, education, and training opportunities.

AI-powered platforms like Eightfold.ai and Gloat employ skills-based matching to facilitate internal recruitment, connecting employee skills to new projects and career paths within their organization.

Implementing a skills-first approach within organizations promotes internal talent mobility, expanding opportunities for employees, particularly those seeking or suited for roles beyond their current trajectory.

3. Enhancing productivity and job satisfaction

AI can automate repetitive tasks, freeing up workers to focus on more creative and strategic work.

AI can also help workers make better decisions, leading to increased productivity and job satisfaction.

AI-powered communication tools can help companies effectively connect with deskless workers on a broader scale and in a more personalized manner.
