AILLA Sit & Play Preschool Learning Systems Solves Learning Disparity with AI

LOS ANGELES, May 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — DMAI, Inc. DBA Animal Island Learning Adventure (AILA), the next-generation cognitive AI education technology company, is honored to receive two prestigious awards in a row.

At the inaugural World Artificial Intelligence Cannes Festival (WAICF) on April 14^th – 16^th in Cannes, France, DMAI, Inc. won the Cannes Neurons Awards for the Creative AI category. The WAICF Honorary Committee, composed of 14 internationally renowned AI experts, formed the jury, and selected the most innovative AI projects rethinking the standards and having a positive impact among the numerous applications received to participate in the final of the Cannes Neurons Awards. With 3-minute on-stage pitch, DMAI, Inc. won the Creative AI category.

“Our mission is to lift humanity with our cognitive AI platforms. Our first product is to solve the education disparity problem. 50% of Americans live in childcare deserts, a ratio of over 3+ young children for one licensed childcare slot. The pandemic exacerbated this issue when the daycares and preschools closed. We launched Animal Island Learning Adventure AILA Sit & Play, the AI driven preschool learning system in March 2020,” said Helen Fu Thomas, CEO of DMAI, Inc. “In the past two years, AILA has helped over one hundred thousand children. With AILA, these toddlers enjoyed preschool learning everyday with joy, comfort, and safety in their own homes or wherever they are when the world shut down. AILA, the AI super tutor, delivered over 10 million learning sessions to our young students. Their caregivers watched with joy how their young children learned the essential preschool skills with AILA. With shortage of childcare even today, this is particularly meaningful to our country.”

In the following week, at the 2022 Edison Awards on April 20^th – 22^nd in Fort Myers, Florida, Animal Island Learning Adventure (AILA) Sit & Play™ Preschool Learning System by DMAI, Inc. won the Silver for Education in Learning Solutions. The Edison Awards for Innovation in the United States is like the Academy Awards for Motion Pictures.
