Nasscom Foundation, MathCo launch AI Training For ‘Neurodivergent’ Youth

New Delhi: Nasscom Foundation on Thursday, in partnership with MathCo, launched a special skill development programme to train “neurodivergent” youth in data annotation.

Generally, a “neurodivergent” person refers to someone on the autism spectrum, whose brain processes information in a way that is not typical of most individuals.

The initiative aims to enhance employment opportunities for them in the growing field of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML).

The programme will train 50 neurodivergent individuals with a focus on both technical and soft skills. The training will be conducted in two phases, with 25 participants in each batch.
