Speeches of Oriana Persico
IAQOS, an open source, neighbourhood Artificial Intelligence
What is, exactly an Artificial Intelligence designed explicitly for neighbourhoods? To answer this question we have created IAQOS, an AI which dedicated to relations and communities by using methods for natural interaction (voice, gesture, body, images, computer vision, possibility to massively use different languages), and we have brought is in the most multi-cultural neighbourhood of the city of Rome: Torpignattara. The results so far have been exciting: a new role for AI, as the enabler of high quality relations across cultures; a new inclusive and accessible culture of data, in which data is not an extractive phenomenon, but a participatory, inclusive one.
