GetJenny hosts a group of senior citizens who are becoming AI mentors

Written by Mikko Rindell | April 25, 2019

GetJenny contributes to Finland's national AI strategy by providing free training for a group of senior citizens. These senior AI mentors have decided to educate themselves and share their knowledge with their fellow-citizens.

They have met regularly at Omnia AI Lab to learn about the different aspects of artificial intelligence and robotics. In addition to these educational sessions organized by Omnia, the AI mentors have visited several companies working in the field of artificial intelligence.

The company visit to GetJenny's office was the AI mentors' last company visit this spring. According to Omnia's AI program manager Pauli Isoaho, the program will be continued.

We at GetJenny are looking forward to possible future company visits like these.
