Hi, My name is Venkat, based out of India. I have 20+ years of experience in the IT, currently working as a consult partner. I have completed Azure AI 900 and 102 trainings and excited about the business growth in the AI platform. I am thinking, how can we leverage the AI revolution to help the rural, unemployed, women empowerment. I'm thinking of a startup and hire under privileged women, train them to train the models. We can make it easy for them to add features, label, upload, speak native language, evaluation, etc.. will that be possible, worth trying?

Sep 25, 2024Hey Venkat, great idea. Can you please share more details? Microsoft products are translated into many Indian languages.
- venkatvallikannuSep 25, 2024Copper ContributorHello Arun, Nice to meet you. I am thinking of providing training to underprivileged women, to help them train AI models. It is essential that AI is trained on the local slang of rural areas. My idea is to build an app that can understand this rural slang and provide valuable information, such as details on government schemes, application statuses, bank statements, and more. There is a wealth of information inherent in Indian culture and tradition that can be leveraged for educational purposes. We could engage these women in reading heritage books and annotating them with meanings, especially considering that some words have different meanings in our languages
