Spotlight Tampa Bay: How AI Can Strengthen Our Communities
Presented by Tampa Bay Times, in partnership with Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg
AI is here to stay — and its influence will only grow. What does this actually mean for our community? On Wednesday, Sept. 24, Spotlight Tampa Bay explored how AI can improve access to jobs, transportation, education and health care while strengthening our neighborhoods. We examined how local businesses and governments can use AI to enhance services, tackle challenges like inequality and isolation and involve residents in shaping the future. Ignoring AI may be the biggest risk of all.
