PANEL DISCUSSION

Global AI Action Alliance: Shaping the future of technology governance

There is currently, a welcome, explosive growth in AI ethics guidelines. However, it has created an implementation gap – it is easier to define the ethical standards a system should meet than to design and deploy a system to meet them. It has also created learning gaps, with activities happening in silos and few mechanisms in place to drive global collaboration and rapid scaling of proven tools and practices. Furthermore, in today’s world where consensus is becoming harder to achieve, there needs to be a focus on interoperability.

How can we accelerate the adoption of trust, transparent and inclusive AI systems globally, to fully harness the transformative potential of AI?

What can we do to get strong buy-in from citizens and governments, based on their trust that AI is being built and used ethically?

Progress to date on creating a feedback loop of real-time learning and scaling across key sectors and challenge areas

Progress to date on catalysing and incubating new partnerships and initiatives to address urgent gaps and needs

What are we doing to get AI governance right, to reflect best practices in data governance and is interoperable globally and across industry sectors?

Manuela Veloso, Head of AI Research, JP Morgan Chase
