From our co-founders.
“AI is a discipline that has the potential to affect so many lives, so it is really important to have a diverse point of view in the workforce, in the research community, in teaching, so we can make sure that the technologies are developed with everyone in mind.”
Doina Precup
AI4Good Lab Co-Founder
DeepMind, McGill University, CIFAR AI Chair
“One of the things that we really wanted to do was have that connection of promising women and gender diverse people that could come together, explore their interest in AI and social good, and really take those relationships onwards.”

What our alumni say.
“I think the Lab gave me the confidence that I could actually work in the AI industry, even though I did not study computer science. I am grateful that the AI4Good Lab helped me with creating a vision for my future.”

“I am thankful that my first AI experience was developing an application for social good. This will remain with me throughout my future endeavours, where I will consider the ethical implications and social good aspects of any AI applications I work on.”
Joud El-Shawa

“The Lab is one of the best opportunities I've had in my life. I learned so much not only about AI, machine learning and the industry but also about myself. The connections made and the bonds formed with the other participants will be preciously kept for a long time.”
