Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) for science is a growing area of interdisciplinary computer science research focused on solving some of the most pressing global issues. While many cite AI's technical advances as the innovative force of the endeavor, I argue that interdisciplinarity, democratization, and cogent justification toward global citizens are driving forces to be fostered in the program's development.
