BOARD OF POLICYMAKERS: CAN LEADERS DELIVER OPTIMISM OVER CAUTION?

29 Oct 2024

In a discussion, there is a focus on the concentration of technology and AI markets, highlighting concerns about data accessibility for countries to run AI models and the impact on migration and politics. The conversation also touches on the importance of policy priorities to sustain growth and prosperity, particularly in regions like Saudi Arabia, which is seen as having a competitive edge due to its agility in policy-making. The role of AI in exacerbating digital divides between the North and the global South is noted, with a call for change to bridge these gaps. The discussion also emphasizes the need for new regulatory frameworks to ensure AI and advanced technologies are used for societal good and progress. Additionally, the potential of AI to revolutionize productivity and growth is compared to the impact of the steam engine, with a focus on the opportunities and risks involved.
