Dr. Ciarán Seoighe:

I was hoping somebody would ask at some point. There are a few, but there is one I thought I would get an opportunity to talk about. AI PREMie is a project out of UCD. It is led by the inimitable Professor Patricia Maguire, who I sometimes wish I could bottle and then share her story. Professor Maguire and her team are using AI to diagnose and revolutionise the management of pre-eclampsia. They are using AI tools to recognise who is at risk and then to be able to do stuff in advance of issues occurring. They have been so successful there that in the past year or so they won one of the UN's top 100 AI projects anywhere in the world. It was recognised for the work Professor Maguire is doing there. The team is rolling out the project in a number of different places. It has achieved the best AI for social good by applications of AI. There is a range of different awards. It is currently being piloted in three of our maternity hospitals in Dublin. This came out of AI high-intensity challenge-based funding research to go out and solve a problem. There was a kind of a solve-for-X approach taken. There are many more examples of AI and there will be many more coming in the future.
