The Girls in AI project aims to share the paths of former and current Técnico students who followed a career in Artificial Intelligence (AI), showing the endless career opportunities in this area and inspiring more girls to follow them. The participants talk about their work and what inspires them to study these highly interdisciplinary areas, such as healthcare, from post-stroke rehabilitation to diagnosis of skin lesions and computational psychiatry. Several students/alumnae also share their enthusiasm for robot-child interactions, both in the context of children with autism spectrum disorders or with visual impairments, and in the context of social robots capable of working in teams. The area of natural language processing is also well represented, with its many applications.
