Interfaith Dialogue & Religion in the Tech World | Marwa Abdulhai | TEDxMIT

Marwa Abdulhai talks on the importance of interfaith dialogue in bridging the divide between communities on campus and beyond. She shares her experiences on how to have meaningful conversations with those of other faith traditions. Marwa also introduces the impact these discussions have had on her own research directions in artificial intelligence and reinforcement learning. Marwa Abdulhai is a Masters Student at the MIT Laboratory for Information & Decision Systems. She works in the space of robotics, artificial intelligence, religion, and interfaith dialogue. Marwa joined the Addir interfaith community as an undergraduate at MIT to foster understanding between faith traditions and dispel misconceptions about Islam. She is deeply inspired by Islamic Renaissance polymaths such as Ibn Sina and Al Khawarizmi who understood their religion deeply, engaged in conversations with scholars of other disciplines and faiths, and leveraged these ideas into their contributions to medicine, algebra, and the sciences. She aspires to build tools at the intersection of human and robot decision-making and design artificial agents that can learn how to learn and build cooperative, long-term relationships with other artificial agents. She has previously interned at Amazon Robotics, Uber Advanced Technologies Group, and IBM. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
