The discussion also addressed AI’s transformative impact on critical sectors such as healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and transportation.
At the conclusion of the workshop, Ms. Safia Ihsan presented Dr. Noor with a letter of appreciation for her outstanding efforts in organizing an insightful technological workshop that emphasized the growing importance of AI in today’s world.
