Bhutan recently hosted a panel discussion where experts from the field participated to discuss the pros and cons of implementing Artificial Intelligence (AI).
The panel discussion was titled “AI in Bhutan: Balancing traditional and Technological Advancement”.
The event was attended by Profesor Toby Walsh, a chief Artificial intelligence scientist at the University of New South Wales in Australia who advocates that AI should be used to improve lives. He added that for Bhutan, education and healthcare can reap the benefits of AI, ANI reported quoting The Bhutan Live.
At the event former chief executive officer of Thimphu TechPark, Dr Tshering Cigay Dorji talked about the opportunities of AI for country like Bhutan.
“Unknowingly, we are benefiting a lot from AI. And besides that, AI can be used for education, AI can be used for environmental conservation, and AI can be used for improving efficiency and productivity at work. So, all we need is to leverage the data that we have. And through machine learning, we can implement all these different AI technologies at the workplace,” he was cited as saying in The Bhutan Live.
