ICYMI AI for Peace – Harnessing the Complementarities between New York and Geneva "With its focus on humanitarian action, global governance, and disarmament, the international Geneva ecosystem is well-suited to contribute to the development of robust ethical standards for the use of AI, including in peace-related activities. These standards should ensure transparency, accountability, impartiality, and protection of human rights, while using AI’s data processing power to identify potential conflict patterns and improve both the prevention and the response. With its policy innovation capabilities, the New York ecosystem has a lot to contribute to this field. It can work towards international consensus to ensure that AI’s role in peacekeeping missions and diplomatic initiatives is both effective and ethically sound. The panel examined how this collaboration may look in practice, and how the New Agenda for Peace could foster this collaboration." https://lnkd.in/eiwtkCBi #AI4Peace

We are excited to highlight Andreas Hirblinger's project on the intersection of peacemaking and technology! As armed conflicts persist globally, the role of digital technologies, especially Artificial Intelligence (AI), in mediation processes is becoming increasingly prominent. Traditionally, peacemaking has been a human-centered endeavor, but the influx of AI poses both challenges and opportunities. This project aims to explore how AI can enhance our understanding of negotiation dynamics, bridging the gap between violent and non-violent forms of negotiation to pave the way for peaceful political settlements.

Such an incredible milestone for the EU with the provisional agreement on the Artificial Intelligence Act! Massive congratulations to all involved. Jeannette Gorzala thank you for keeping us updated with this historic moment that showcases meticulous attention to detail and summarising the key provisions: Scope and Definitions - Aligned with global standards. Classification - Stringent rules for high-risk AI systems. Governance - Establishment of an AI Office and advisory panels. Penalties - Reflecting global turnover, yet accommodating SMEs and start-ups. Transparency - Ensuring fundamental rights and assessments. Innovation Support - Encouraging innovation through regulatory sandboxes and testing. This sets the stage for the AI Act to come into effect in two years, marking a significant leap toward responsible AI governance. Exciting times ahead! #AIAct #EU #InnovationLeadership Ahmad Haj Mosa, PhD Matthias Grabner Hans Sailer Clemens Wasner Clemens Foisner Saeed Al Dhaheri Dr Sohail Munir Sherin Mathew Maja Brkljacic Martina Silov Andrew Schumer Dr. Eva-Marie Muller-Stuler Janat Soomro Ruediger Koester Naveed Syed Dimitrios Serpanos AI4VET4AI

Artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming the way we live, and at a rapid pace. Yesterday, the Council of the EU unanimously voted to approve the Artificial Intelligence act, a pioneering law which aims to harmonise rules on artificial intelligence across the bloc. Going forward, policymakers must strike a balance between innovation and safeguarding, ensuring that AI’s potential is harnessed while Europe’s sovereignty, control and ethical responsibilities are upheld. The AI Act is an important first step in these efforts. Here, Youssef Travaly, Senior Fellow for Digital at the Africa-Europe Foundation (AEF), reminds us of the profundity of the change that is being brought about by AI, reiterating the importance of addressing and adapting to this transformation. Our 10 Policy Choices for a Renewed Social Contract for Europe chart the course for this evolution, highlighting how AI can be leveraged to create a more equitable, resilient Europe. ➡️ Find out more here: https://bit.ly/RSC10PC #RenewedSocialContract #AIAct #ArtificialIntelligence

What do African governments need to understand about AI and Big Data in order to provide support? Ronald Osumba, Senior Political Advisor at the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change, emphasises the transformative potential of these technologies in addressing critical issues across various sectors. But, the physical application of these technologies needs to be seen before the necessary support is arrived at. He spoke at a recent side-event organised by Qhala at the KICC that explored funding for AI in Africa. #AIRevolution #BigData #Innovation #AfricaRising #TechTransformation
