Where is AI in the fight Against COVID-19?

The global COVID-19 pandemic has pushed many to ask the question “where is AI in this fight”? The challenge with a new pandemic is the lack of a large amount of training data, which AI initiatives require. A project developed at Cognizant is the closest to answering questions raised around AI's response to the pandemic. In this podcast episode, Jason Stoughton, a veteran technologist, AI enthusiast, author and entrepreneur, speaks with Babak Hodjat and Risto Miikulainen, on how a system developed as part of a project by them uses evolutionary AI which requires less data, utilizes creativity and goes beyond forecasting to basically providing advice. In addition to Babak and Risto, Bret Greenstein, who is the Senior Vice President and Global Head of the Ai and Analytics Practice at Cognizant, also joins the conversation.
