The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation on Wednesday announced 48 recipients of a $5 million program to develop AI-based applications built on large language models that target pressing problems in low-and-middle-income countries.
The grantees, who will each be awarded $100,000, are working on issues that span a broad spectrum, from researchers developing a ChatGPT-based chatbot to create and manage detailed electronic medical records for maternal healthcare workers in Pakistan to an entrepreneur working on an AI tutoring tool to offer specialized education to students in Kenya.
