Global Leaders Call for Safe and Reliable AI

At the AI summit in New Delhi, dozens of countries, including the US and China, signed a joint communiqué calling for an AI that is “safe, reliable and thriving.” The text promotes non-binding initiatives for the joint use of AI research at the international level. Although it does not include specific commitments, the communiqué highlights the importance of international cooperation. There were disagreements between countries, with the US rejecting the idea of global management of AI. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stressed the need for a regulatory framework. The conference discussed issues such as the social benefits of translation, threats to employment, and energy consumption.
