Artificial intelligence helps us discover powerful new possibilities that benefit everyone on the planet. Artificial intelligence can also help people with disabilities live independently and play an important role in all aspects of life. This year, around the goal of promoting inclusion in technology, Intel launched a new award to recognize AI innovation focused on accessibility. The Intel AI Global Impact Carnival has made accessibility a key focus, including real-time subtitles, screen readers for the visually impaired, and translations in more than 120 languages.

Artificial intelligence technology has the power to create positive change, but its development also comes with potential ethical risks. Intel is committed to building and using innovative AI technologies in a responsible manner and adopting a comprehensive and responsible AI strategy to prevent the misuse of AI technology.

Intel's Artificial Intelligence Social Responsibility Team conducted a moral hazard review on the projects of this year's winners, and evaluated the project's topic relevance and its ability to solve potential risks. The review procedures and evaluation standards refer to the artificial intelligence projects of each company. regulations to be followed. This year’s Intel Artificial Intelligence Global Impact Carnival also added a new self-study course focusing on responsible artificial intelligence skills, and all participants can receive certificates.

This carnival provides rich rewards to global participants, including prizes totaling more than 500,000 US dollars, award certificates, Intel laptops and mentoring opportunities from Intel engineers.
