bAIs Exists As
Bhutan stands at a crossroads, where the acceleration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) runs in tandem with its adoption as evidenced from the practice of other countries. On other hand, this has called for an ethical consideration of AI application and responsible consumption. While AI empowers the livelihood of Bhutanese people; bAIs believes in the complementarity between the AI and the development philosophy of Gross National Happiness.
The AI community in Bhutan still needs to be more vibrant and ensure people are committed to open science and open technologies and want to participate in the new wave of AI innovations.
Therefore, collaboration and knowledge sharing help community build a thriving environment for a fleet-footed AI innovation and inclusivity, besides identifying risk and building a body of mitigative measures to take AI to greater heights.
Understanding the need, bAIs was established on December 17, 2023 as a potential non-profit organization by AI enthusiasts to pursue a shared aspiration to embrace AI mechanisms for sensible human developments.
