Session 11: AI governance on the global stage
• Addressing potential risks posed by AI systems (privacy, health, safety, fundamental rights) while promoting innovation and the adoption of reliable AI
• Comparing regulatory approaches – ex ante/ex post/co-regulation. Are new regulations needed? How will existing regulations interface with new ones?
• Given the global nature of AI models, how effective do we anticipate sovereign regulation will be? How will consistency and harmonisation be reached?
• Working collaboratively to bring valuable services to users in a way that is respectful of addressing their potential risks/concerns
• Sustainability – impact on datacenter/ICT power consumption. Who’s responsibility?
