[IGFmaglist] main session on AI

[Evelyne Tauchnitz]

Thank you to everyone from my side, too!

As a very last minor revision, I have inserted the mentioning of UNESCO's
and the Council of Europe's work on AI in the online document.

Best wishes,

Evelyne

>
> In today's world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a pivotal role in
> transforming industries and daily life. By emulating human cognitive
> functions like learning, reasoning, and problem-solving, AI becomes a
> powerful tool driving innovation and addressing complex challenges.
>
> To maximize AI's positive impact on society, a responsible and ethical
> development that is grounded in human rights is essential. This approach
> ensures AI is harnessed for peaceful purposes, contributing to the
> evolution of humanity and global cooperation, building trust, fairness, and
> privacy protection, while preventing unintended consequences or intended
> harm for human wellbeing and promoting ecological sustainability. It also
> maintains human control, preserves jobs, and encourages global
> collaboration for collective human progress.
>
>
>
> To achieve these objectives, the development of AI standards, principles
> and regulations is vital. The evolving landscape of AI principles includes
> various standards and frameworks, addressing ethical concerns,
> transparency, and human rights. Governments, organizations, and researchers
> advocate these principles, with initiatives like the IEEE Global Initiative
> on Ethics of Autonomous and Intelligent Systems, the European Commission's
> Ethics Guidelines for Trustworthy AI, and the Principles for AI by the
> Future of Life Institute. Human rights can thereby serve as an ethical
> compass to create a robust foundation for responsible AI development and
> deployment.
>
> In addition to existing ethical principles, translating them into legally
> binding regulations is crucial. Enforceable laws and policies ensure AI
> technologies are used responsibly, holding those accountable for
> non-compliance. Legal regulations provide a stronger framework for
> safeguarding rights, promoting fairness, and mitigating risks associated
> with AI.
>
>
>
> The AI regulatory landscape remains dynamic, with continuous refinements
> and new developments taking place. Collaboration among countries and
> organizations on ethical AI regulations is crucial to address global
> challenges collectively, share best practices, and create a level playing
> field for AI development.
>
> The goal of this main session is to discuss how AI could be designed,
> regulated and harmonized to better serve all humans while maintaining their
> rights, as well as to share ideas on how this can be achieved. It is
> necessary to assess the state of development of standards and regulations,
> share knowledge and best practices, and provide a platform for a
> multistakeholder exchange on how to develop common principles for the AI we
> want and ensure that we have the right institutions in place to translate
> them into binding standards and regulations. In addition, there is a need
> for global cooperation to translate scientific insights into effective
> policy action.
>
>
>
> Policy questions that will be addressed during this main session:
>
>    - Are existing national, regional and international initiatives on AI
>    standard setting and regulation enough, or do we need a new global
>    framework?
>    - What would be the necessary intermediary steps to create such a
>    global framework and build or equip the responsible organizations in charge
>    of implementation, monitoring, oversight and compliance?
>    - How can we effectively translate scientific insights on AI’s
>    benefits and risks for human wellbeing into effective policy action (e.g.
>    establishment of an Intergovernmental Panel on Digital Change IPDC in
>    analogy to the IPCC on climate change)?
