Thematic   Sessions: Opportunities and Challenges AI

15:30-17:00

How   to make global AI governance and digital cooperation mechanisms more   inclusive for small and developing countries, as well as make their voices   heard?

How   to promote equality with the global South via standard setting,   knowledge exchange, capacity building and strengthening digital cooperation?

What   are the typical obstacles for the global South in mobilizing   multi-stakeholder and multi-sectorial cooperation to close the digital   divide?

How can South-South Cooperation help to   ensure no country is left behind and increase the capacity of poorer   countries to regulate and govern AI tech for their own benefit?

Thematic Session #1: Closing Digital   Divide in the   Age of Global Digital Interdependence

With   lower capacity in AI, developing countries are at a greater risk of being   left behind in the digital era, unable to benefit from economic and other   opportunities that AI presents. Addressing this imbalance and ensuring that   all have a voice in the digital future and can manage the associated upside   and downside risks, is essential for developing countries.

Plenary Session III: The Future of Governance in the Metaverse

The development   of the Metaverse has sparked a fierce   examination of the evolution of human society brought by   disruptive technologies. The relationships between   individuals and sovereignties, relations between   sovereignties themselves, and the individual human   experience all come under the scanner as we   construct and shape the Metaverse. This session will serve as   a thought experiment examining future challenges on AI &   Metaverse governance. It will cut through issues from how   we form  individual rights, citizenship   and sovereignty in the virtual space, the “hardware” or   infrastructure required to maintain the metaverse, to the   “software” needed for it to operate such as modified social   contracts and regulatory frameworks. This session   will act as a cross-sectoral, inter-disciplinary   conversation, involving both private and public sectors and also bring in   the next generation of AI leaders to share their unique   perspectives on the future of our digital world.
