Robert is also the author of Human-in-the-Loop Machine Learning, a book focused on human-centered AI applications.nnThroughout the courses, you'll hear from experts working on AI for Good initiatives aimed at addressing social and environmental issues.

By combining human and machine intelligence, real-world datasets, best practices around data privacy, and ethical considerations, you'll develop the knowledge and fundamental skills to tackle your own AI for good projects.nnThese courses were built in partnership with researchers at the Microsoft AI for Good Lab who offered their subject matter expertise through the development of the program. We are also grateful to Sasha Luccioni, Climate Lead and Researcher at HuggingFace for her help in forming the high-level program structure, outlining what kinds of topics and case studies would work best for these courses, and recruiting many of the experts that either appear in guest speaker videos or have contributed behind the scenes.
