Given the data-intensive nature of approaches such as machine learning, and the increasing ubiquity of AI in everyday products and services, there is a growing interest to understand its implications. At the same time, a tremendous amount of innovation and entrepreneurship in the AI space is emerging in Asia, not just in western economies, to address particular local challenges.
Digital Asia Hub and GSMA jointly held a half-day session on AI and Trust in APAC and China at the Mobile Week China in Shanghai on June 27, 2019.
