Artificial Intelligence and the Poverty Entrepreneur: Can It Make a Difference?

Wednesday, March 20, 2024, 11 am – 12:15 pm (Eastern Time Zone, USA)

The revolution in artificial intelligence has been hailed as the driver of the fourth industrial revolution, a game changer, and transformative.  It has also been perceived to be a source of bias, social manipulation, job loss, market volatility, socioeconomic inequality, weakening ethics, and a threat to privacy. What are its implications, both positive and negative, when it comes to those in poverty when trying to start a business?  Could it be an empowering tool, or will it put many of these ventures out of business?  In this exciting webinar, we feature four unique perspectives on AI, entrepreneurship, and the disadvantaged.
