2. UCLA Anderson online marketplace of MBA talent
UCLA Anderson's Business Creation Program has created Unykrn, an online marketplace of MBA talent, who will serve small businesses and entrepreneurs. They have affordable services for our UC Family! One of their areas of expertise is marketing, so if you have a deck or marketing collateral that needs visuals, they’d love to support you. Here are some freelance MBA consultants.
3. These Women Tried to Warn Us About AI
Today the risks of artificial intelligence are clear — but the warning signs have been there all along. IMNIT GEBRU DIDN’T set out to work in AI. At Stanford, she studied electrical engineering — getting both a bachelor’s and a master’s in the field. Then she became interested in image analysis, getting her Ph.D. in computer vision. When she moved over to AI, though, it was immediately clear that there was something very wrong.
