Governments play an essential role in regulating the developments and usage of artificial intelligence. Lacking necessary AI policies, the technology might be misused and backfire in increasing inequality, the rise of totalitarian powers, supporting racism biases, etc. But if our politicians have no clue how the technology works, how are they going to be implemented? This is exactly what The Future Society is about. The “think-and-do-tank” has an extraordinary mission: Advancing the responsible adoption of Artificial Intelligence and other emerging technologies for the benefit of humanity. How does the organization shape the global AI policy framework? Can governments find a balance between caution & foresight and action that is rapid enough? How is AI being used to eradicate modern slavery? Dive with us into this thought-provoking conversation with Adriana Bora, AI Policy Researcher at The Future Society.
