AI Assistants are a reflection of the people that create them.
If we want them to be inclusive and human-centric, then a diverse group of people should be creating them.
However, not everybody has the means to get skilled up and enter the field independently.
The CDI Foundation Scholarships make it easier for people to enter the industry. If you have the right background and motivation, then you may qualify for a scholarship that is financed by our community members.
Our scholarships are funded by Partners and Friends of The CDI Foundation.
Scholarships are awarded to people who can clearly articulate why they want a career in Conversational AI and why they deserve a scholarship. We are looking for people who have strong intrinsic motivation and aspirations in the field.
Scholarships are awarded based on both merit and financial need. We aim to provide opportunities to students who might not have access to this education otherwise.
The ideal candidate will belong to a group that is currently underrepresented in the field. We seek to support an increasingly diverse community in Conversational AI because we know that diversity of thought doesn’t happen without diversity of representation.
