MTN, Gates Foundation launch AI initiative to improve maternal healthcare in Nigeria

The Gates Foundation and MTN have launched an initiative to improve maternal healthcare in Nigeria using artificial intelligence, mobile technology, and improved connectivity. The initiative aims to support pregnant women, health workers, and primary healthcare facilities.

The Gates Foundation has announced plans to spend at least $1 billion over the next two years to expand access to AI and AI-enabled solutions. According to the foundation's 10th annual Goalkeepers Report, AI has the potential to be a great equalizer, but only if it is built intentionally to benefit those who need it most.

Bill Gates, Chairman of the Gates Foundation, emphasized the need for increased generosity and the smart use of AI to accelerate the fight against inequality. He highlighted the importance of building human values and moral codes into AI systems to ensure they benefit society.
