Microsoft India and Sustainable Environment and Ecological Development Society (SEEDS) have partnered together to build a new Artificial Intelligence model called 'Sunny Lives'. This new model will have the ability to predict heatwave risks in India. According to a release by Microsoft, "Phase II begins with model development for heatwave risks in urban core heatwave zones." The new AI model is aimed at helping 1,25,000 at-risk people with pre-emptive disaster warnings in 2021. The new AI prediction model solution has been developed under Microsoft's global programme 'Artificial Intelligence for Humanitarian Action' to build disaster resilient communities in India.
