We’re constantly hearing about natural disasters occurring throughout the world. They are not only becoming more prevalent but also more dangerous. Technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) have the potential to prevent destruction to some extent. AI is already being used to help detect and prepare for extreme weather and other hazards, as well as help with disaster management. 

We want to hear how you see AI being used in the future to prevent natural disasters. We are not looking for ideas that already exist. 

Deliverables
  1. How can governments use AI to prevent and prep for potential natural disasters? 

  2. How can we as individuals make use of AI tools to stay prepped for natural disasters?
