टीबी आज भी एक बड़ी चुनौती है, क्योंकि समय पर इसकी पहचान न होने से संक्रमण फैलने का खतरा बढ़ जाता है।
लेकिन सोचिए, अगर टीबी के संकेत पहचानने में हफ्ते नहीं, सिर्फ़ 60 सेकंड लगें!
https://t.co/xRmt9t9Nk5, छाती के एक्स-रे की मदद से टीबी के संकेत जल्दी पहचानने में मदद कर रहा है। कैसे? 🧵
https://t.co/8KuHbY8o8H को दुनिया भर के अस्पतालों की 1 अरब से ज्यादा मेडिकल तस्वीरों के अध्ययन से तैयार किया गया है। यह छाती के एक्स-रे में टीबी के संकेत पहचान सकता है और गंभीर मामले को तुरंत दूर बैठे विशेषज्ञ तक पहुँचा सकता है। यानी, एक तरह का डिजिटल मददगार है।
The pipes are underground. The problems are hidden. But the water loss is real.

जब तकनीक लोगों की भाषा समझे, तो डिजिटल अवसरों तक पहुँच और आसान हो जाती है। 14 लाख+ ऐप डाउनलोड्स इस दिशा में बढ़ती भागीदारी को दिखाते हैं।
#AIForSocialGood
क्या आप जानते हैं कि भाषा की बाधाओं के कारण देश के करोड़ों लोग डिजिटल सेवाओं से दूर रह जाते थे?
भारत का एआई-पावर्ड प्लेटफॉर्म भाषिणी (Bhashini) इसी दूरी को मिटा रहा है। यह 22 से अधिक भाषा सेवाओं और 350 से ज्यादा एआई मॉडल्स के ज़रिए 100 करोड़ से अधिक भारतीयों तक डिजिटल सेवाओं की पहुँच आसान बनाने में मदद कर रहा है।
इस तकनीक की सबसे बड़ी ताकत जन-भागीदारी है। भाषादान के ज़रिए लोग अपनी बोली और आवाज़ का योगदान देकर एआई को अधिक सटीक और समावेशी बना रहे हैं; ताकि तकनीक हर भारतीय के लिए बेहतर काम करे।
