Technology experts and educators advocated for a fearless adoption of AI into the daily lives of residents at a panel of University of St. Martin Wednesday on the emerging technology.
Education Minister Melissa Gumbs led a panel of experts in tech during the conversation, arguing for a confident integration of AI to curricula in schools and asking guests to consider the value of the tool.
Head of Bureau Telecom & Post's Technical Division Sydney de Weever defended AI as a reasonable progression in technology that could improve people's lives.
