Global Future Council on Artificial Intelligence for Humanity
Global Future Council on Artificial Intelligence for Humanity
Council mission and objectives
Actors from industry, government and civil society organizations are creating a growing range of approaches to address the challenges that come with the proliferation of artificial intelligence to ensure that it is developed and used responsibly in all industry sectors and geographies. At the same time, the long-term impact of AI on marginalized communities is unknown and engagement on AI is absent in the communities most directly affected by automation and other AI tools. In order to ensure that the development and use of AI technologies are equitable, inclusive and serve the whole of society, a greater understanding of AI is needed among marginalized groups and more opportunities for diverse voices to be a part of the AI governance ecosystem.
The Global Future Council on Artificial Intelligence for Humanity is a diverse group comprising experts from business, civil society, academia and government. The council will develop policy and governance solutions to promote greater inclusion of underserved communities in the AI development and governance ecosystem.
