Pie & AI Ambassador Spotlight: Tarun R Jain, Bengaluru, India. "I started my journey in Machine Learning and Deep Learning with Professor Andrew Ng’s Coursera courses. Without these courses, I would probably have zero knowledge in this field. Being a part of this community allowed me to access valuable resources and courses. It also provided a supportive network of peers who shared my passion for AI. As I continued to learn and grow, I found myself increasingly engaged in organizing events, workshops, and discussions to help others navigate the complexities of deep learning."

A conversation with Microsoft’s AI for Good Lab Director: Juan Lavista Ferres

June 29th, 2023 | Community

I have been interested in AI for Good-type work for the majority of my career. Almost 20 years ago, a good friend of mine lost a child to SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). As a result, I started volunteering with Seattle Children’s Hospital, helping to understand the causes and preventative steps that could be taken to reduce the risk of SIDS. This volunteer engagement led to the opportunity to create the Microsoft AI for Good Lab. I could have never imagined the scope and scale of the work we’re fortunate to do today. From improving health outcomes to biodiversity conservation and humanitarian response, the relevance and need for AI in every sector has never been more pronounced.

And, since my research required knowledge of deep learning algorithms, I completed the courses on deep learning and TensorFlow from Deeplearning.AI and subscribed to the newsletter.  During that time, I realized that my biggest professional and personal interests are artificial intelligence and community building.
