The state of AI safety: Where we are and where we need to go

The first AI Safety Summit brought the issue of AI Safety to the top of the international AI conversation. Six months on, it’s time to take stock of where we are now and where we need to go to further AI Safety. The panel will discuss progress since Bletchley, including the International Scientific Report on Advanced AI Safety, how the AI safety conversation evolved at the Seoul summit and what we need to bear in mind ahead of France. The panel discussion will be followed by Q&A.

Panel

The expanded conversation: Addressing the challenges for responsible and trustworthy AI

The AI Summit conversation is evolving in acknowledgment that in order to responsibly harness AI’s huge potential benefits we need to address a broad set of potential negative consequences – from bias, to climate impact and misinformation. This panel will reflect and build on the discussion at the Seoul Summit, and consider how stakeholders across the AI ecosystem – from governments, industry, civil society and academia – can together tackle the challenges. The panel discussion will be followed by Q&A.
