Artificial Intelligence Society: President

As a dedicated member of the AI society’s Development Team, I have been able to actively involve myself in a variety of events and initiatives, both attending and organising. From seminars from journal club to participating in or hosting hackathons (come March 12!!), I have witnessed firsthand the growth and potential of our community. I hope to give back to this community by serving as your president.

My vision for the society is to further expand our reach and influence, using projects like climatehack.ai to do so. I plan to work on both maintaining strong relationships and developing new ones–collaborations with CS or Data Science Society of course, but also Automotive, FinTech, Neuro, etc. With the support of our community, our network of like-minded individuals who share a passion for AI and technology can grow significantly.

Furthermore, I aim to create an environment that fosters both personal and professional growth for our members. Through the tutorials and project teams, we can provide our members with the knowledge and experience necessary to become skilled engineers and successful entrepreneurs. I am committed to ensuring that our members are equipped with the tools and resources they need to succeed.

If elected as President, I will work tirelessly to promote the values and mission of our society. I am passionate about this community and dedicated to making it the best it can be. Together, we can make the AI society a place where members can thrive and succeed.

As current Treasurer and previous Head of Tutorials and First Year rep, I had an amazing opportunity to work alongside our talented team seeing how people with different interests expand their knowledge under the UCL AI Society. As a President, I will have three main priorities.

Community. A society should be a place to explore your interests, build long-lasting community relationships and make memories for life. By hosting large-scale keynote speaker events, hackathons, hands-on tutorials, and weekly socials we would provide people with a greater sense of community.

International initiatives. In the past years, the AI Society had an amazing opportunity to collaborate with 25 world-leading universities while organising the Climate Hack.AI competition. Such initiatives allow us to expand our network, build a stronger community and, most importantly, make a real impact while doing so. I believe that such collaboration could be expanded even further by organizing international conferences, Code-for-Good competitions, and research-focused project team initiatives.

Improving initiative integration. Over the past years, AI society accumulated a large number of excellent initiatives; however, the lack of connectivity between these individual components makes it hard for members to get the most out of society. Introducing a pathway-based system focused on research, industry or entrepreneurship would provide a clearer structure and benefit for the AI society member base.
