  • While the world figures out how to tackle COVID-19, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is playing a key role in this fight, says Aidrus.

The Pakistani government has joined hands with a predictive analytics startup Love For Data, which would help authorities, make “data-driven decisions” in its combat against the coronavirus.

“While the world figures out how to tackle COVID-19, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is playing a key role in this fight,” stated Tania Aidrus, Prime Minister Focal Person for Digital Pakistan in a tweet post on Monday. “Excited to announce Digital Pakistan and Love for Data, coming together to help make data-driven decisions during this fight,” she added.

With the coronavirus pandemic spreading with each passing day, it has become ever more important for the government to make sound decisions to curb the spread of the virus.

Earlier, the government launched a chatbot to address queries relating to the novel coronavirus COVID-19.

“Our team wanted to build an effective way to get information out to Pakis­tanis. We’ve launched a chatbot to address common concerns on Coronavirus. You can find labs near you and even do a quick test to assess your risk of Coronavirus. Please try it out!” Aidrus wrote on social media.
