Int’l community’s challenge is to put AI in service of humanity: French president
ANKARA
The international community’s challenge is to put artificial intelligence (AI) in the service of humanity, the French president said Tuesday.
“I think this is the exact challenge ahead of us regarding AI: embracing the wonderful technological transformations, managing to master … AI and its implications in many sectors, and putting it in the service of humanity in a world jostled by more and more crises, but via open dialogue,” Emmanuel Macron told the AI summit that started Monday in Paris.
He stressed that the participation of heads of state and government, as well as researchers, representatives of civil society, and entrepreneurs from India, the US, China, Europe, Africa, and Latin America, is “the possibility of having this dialogue … and to understand this science and put it into the service of collective progress.”
The two-day international summit, co-chaired with India, brings together heads of state and government, tech titans, academics, and policymakers from over 80 countries to discuss ethical, political, and economic challenges surrounding AI.
High-profile participants include Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and US Vice President JD Vance, among others.
Macron announced on Monday a €109 billion ($112 billion) investment in AI over the coming years.
