ProHuman: Governing the Global AI Revolution

About ProHuman: Governing the Global AI Revolution

The promises and perils of artificial intelligence are mythic. It could help alleviate poverty and hunger and even cure cancer. But it could also cause massive job loss, spread deepfakes and disinformation, and lead to profound disruption to our modern way of life. And right now, all of that power is held by just a few companies, even though we all carry the risks. From Foreign Policy in collaboration with the Future of Life Institute comes a new podcast where global leaders ask AI experts urgent questions about this transformative technology and how we can govern it together. What guardrails are needed to ensure AI development is safe and beneficial for all of humanity? What are the red lines not to cross, and how can they be enforced? How can governments collaborate to create international standards that keep everyone safe? And how can the benefits of AI be spread equitably across the globe? There’s no time to waste. We need to be having these conversations. Listen to ProHuman: Governing the Global AI Revolution wherever you get your podcasts.

[…] For decades, the non-nuclear-armed states in the treaty remained patient. For a lot of countries, they had this hope that somehow the nuclear armed states, if they just asked them enough and nagged them and said, pretty please, do something, they would do it. And then I think that there was a moment where governments saw the results of the landmines treaty and the cluster munitions, how much it impacted even the countries outside the treaty and thought, hey, maybe we should try that. The treaties banning landmines and cluster munitions have been signed by more than 100 countries. And even the countries that didn't sign started reducing their stockpiles. […]
