This increasing attention is often focused on the negative consequences of AI, often overlooking the societal benefits that AI can deliver. This workshop on \"AI\u00a0and Social Good\" will focus on that missing perspective: how AI can help solve\u00a0difficult societal challenges, in assisting low resource communities, public health and welfare, public safety and security,\u00a0 and conservation. To that end, the workshop aims to bring together leading AI researchers, social work researchers, and experts\/policy makers from a wide variety of domains, from all over the world. This forum\/workshop will be collaborative in nature.\u00a0 Through this workshop, we\u00a0hope to\u00a0establish concrete partnerships, and work toward improving the world we live in\u2013both big and small, locally and internationally.\r\n\r\nMore details on the workshop will be updated here later."},{"id":1,"name":"People","content":"Program Committee\r\n\r\nMilind Tambe, University of Southern California\r\n\r\nY.
