About Us - The Global AI Literacy Forum

Mission Statement

Building an AI Literate Community, Bridging the Digital Divide

Global AI Literacy Forum, Inc. is a dedicated Not-for-Profit Organization committed to enhancing Artificial Intelligence (AI) Literacy, focusing on South Asia and the US.

We cover a wide range of domains related to infrastructure, education, tools, and emerging technologies. Our core goal is to build an adequately informed and digital-literate community, actively work to bridge the digital gap, and enable individuals and society to harness cutting-edge technology for collective benefit.

We believe that understanding and access to AI should not be limited to tech experts, but should be available to everyone, fostering a future where technology serves humanity equitably.

Vertices

What vertices do we aspire to work on? Want to work or research on any of these? Please feel free to contact us.

Public Health

AI/ML is transforming healthcare by accelerating the process of diagnosis, drung discovery and ushering era of personalized care.

K-12 Education

Students have heavily engraved chatbots powered by LLMs in their daily lives; future implications, at best, are inconclusive.

Agriculture

Precision agriculture, improved weather and crop managements has resulted in increased yeilds and boosted productivity.

Environment

Power hungry nature of the underlying infrastructure powering AI growth has it's own set of negetive impacts.

Wildlife Conservation

Advanced algorithms and methods for animal tracking have allowed us for understanding wildlife behaviour better.

Economic Growth

AI is expected to increase the global GDP by $7 trillion, while affecting almost 40% of jobs in the next 10 years. Researches are not certain if that's a good thing!

Challanges Identified

What challages have we identified?

Digital Divide

Millions still lack access to basic digital technology. Furthermore, many who do have such access are not well equipped with the adequate digital literacy to effectively utilize these tools, including AI, actively hindering their ability to participate fully in this dynamic world.

Rapid Rise of AI

Artificial Intelligence is increasingly shaping our habits, lives and even society. To ensure such consequential technology is used ethically and beneficially ("for good"), broad public understanding of its working is crucial. This need extends beyond the tech sector to include students, farmers, educators, artists, and citizens in every field.

Inclusive Education

Formal education systems, while essential, are often slow to adapt. In a field where progress is overnight and progress feels like magic, there's an urgent need for accessible, practical, and relevant programs to increase AI awareness and informal programs tailored for diverse audiences, ensuring everyone can learn, adapt, and thrive.
