Episode 2: AI Ethics and Diplomacy - Multilateralism & The International Governance of AI

June 30, 2021 12:00 PM

1:00 pm

EST - Eastern Standard Time UTC -5

Online Event

The talk will discuss how diplomacy and the United Nations can play a role in encouraging development of AI at the global level.

In this presentation, Dr. Eugenio Vargas Garcia will discuss how diplomacy, multilateralism, and the United Nations (UN) in particular can play a role in encouraging further engagement in artificial intelligence at the global level.

‍
In a fragmented landscape, despite numerous initiatives on AI principles, the international governance of AI lacks coordination. The UN has been active on several fronts, including UNESCO’s negotiations on a Recommendation on AI ethics and the follow-up of the Secretary-General’s High-Level Panel on Digital Cooperation.

‍
The UN is well positioned to offer a credible multilateral track, under the auspices of the Organization, towards ethical, human-centered, and peaceful uses of AI systems.

Policy Paper Discussion: Introducing a New Framework to Consider Emerging Uses of Technology for Development

In this presentation, Dr Peter Martey Addo will be discussing the policy paper "Emerging Uses of Technology for Development: A New Intelligence Paradigm ".

With only ten years left to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), development organizations rapidly need to innovate their approach to decision making and problem solving. New lessons and understandings, born from emerging uses of technology, can enable these innovations.

The policy paper was released by The GovLab (USA) and the French Development Agency (AFD). The presentation will examine the value propositions of AI, one of such intelligences, and new opportunities.
