He attended an event held at Zhangjiang Science Hall in Shanghai and delivered a keynote speech.According to media reports, the purpose of this visit to China is to learn about the latest progress of Chinese partners in key areas such as infectious disease prevention and control, maternal and child health, and agriculture, and to explore how to better apply relevant experience and technology to the international community, mainly low- and middle-income countries, to promote tangible results in global health and development.
During his speech, Gates shared what he sees as "real progress," saying,“Progress does not depend on how advanced a solution is, but on who it benefits first.”
When innovation is designed for the most resource-poor and implemented where the need is greatest, the scale of lives saved is unmatched by any other means.
Gates also said that among all things created by humans, artificial intelligence will bring the most profound changes to society.
There will be new challenges, but AI does have the potential to help solve major global problems.
Artificial intelligence is expected to help Africa achieve leapfrog development
In January this year, the Gates Foundation announced the Horizon 1000 initiative in partnership with OpenAI.There are plans to introduce artificial intelligence tools into 1,000 primary care clinics in sub-Saharan Africa.
These tools can support health workers from patient admission to triage to follow-up care, helping them provide more efficient and better services.
In addition to the health field, artificial intelligence can also accelerate scientific research and improve supply chains.
