 Welcome to the AI for Good Global Summit here at the ITU headquarters in Geneva. And I'm really delighted to have here on day two Neil Shahouta, who's actually an IBM master inventor. There's only 300 of you worldwide, I think, so great. So tell me, Neil, what brings you here? Well, I have a great passion for AI, especially for social good. I very much believe in the mission of what the UN ITU is trying to do. They were very nice enough to start engaging me a couple of years ago, and very proud to assist them and work with them in making events like this and helping spread the awareness and understanding of what AI is. What's really exciting about in your field with AI right now? Well, there's a lot going on. Again, I think we've moved beyond computers just being automators, that doing it faster, cheaper, less errors, that we're unlocking home capabilities now with AI in terms of looking at data and drawing insights and connecting millions of dots together in a way that we can never see to help us as people have a better tool set to make better decisions. You're getting the computer software, but for a layman, can you understand what you're doing? I think so. One of my jobs is to try and help people understand what they can do with AI, not be so technical about it. So think about it that you have a super smart machine that remembers everything it's ever read, seen, heard, watched, as well as remembers all its experiences in trying to do something. So think of it as having the ultimate best friend that happens to be a domain expert in some sort of field that you can ask a question of or ask you to help figure something new out. In terms of the UN's goals, the Sustainable Development Goals, where does that come into it, though? Well, if I remember correctly, the UN has stated that there's at least $5 to $7 trillion shortfall in the resources available today and what we need to actually fulfill the SDGs. And I think emerging technology, particularly AI, is one way to try and bridge that gap that we can actually do more with less. So using the power of this technology should be an accelerator for us fulfilling the SDGs. And here, what's the importance of actually having international dialogue here on AI? I think it's critical. I think we're at a point where a lot of people have much better understanding of what AI is and trying to think about what's possible. There's very much a fear factor involved in terms of what does this mean? Are people going to lose jobs? Could this be misused? I look at AI as very much a tool. It's like a hammer. You can use it to build or you can use it to destroy. And I think getting together with different perspectives, different, you know, perceptions, ethics, morals is very important to shape up policy so that we're driving right usage, right practices so that we actually maximise the value for humanity. Thanks, Neil. My pleasure. That's Neil Sahota, who is not only a master inventor, he's also the worldwide business development leader at IBM Watson. Thank you.
