Neil Sahota, a leading artificial intelligence (AI) expert, called for creation of a new ecosystem to encourage partnerships that could provide a solution to the coronavirus and possibly future pandemic diseases.

It could be a very powerful approach for us in fighting the corona virus and future, potential pandemic diseases.”
