Global AI Summit in Paris: A Call for Open and Ethical Artificial Intelligence



The AI Summit in Paris brought together world leaders, top tech executives, and policymakers to discuss the future of artificial intelligence and its impact on global security, business, jobs, and more. Co-hosted by India, which has been announced as the next host for the AI Summit, the event highlighted the urgent need for open and ethical AI development. However, the US and the UK notably did not sign the final declaration on sustainable and inclusive AI, raising questions about global collaboration.

India’s Leadership in AI Governance


Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized the unprecedented scale and speed of AI development, calling for global governance frameworks to ensure responsible innovation. In his address, Modi highlighted the potential of AI to create jobs and transform industries, urging the world to focus on opportunities rather than just risks.


We are at the dawn of the AI age that will shape the course of humanity. While some worry about machines surpassing human intelligence, it is us humans who hold the key to our collective future and shared destiny. That sense of responsibility must guide us,"* Modi stated.


Modi’s leadership in AI is evident in India’s proactive approach to integrating AI into governance and public services. Despite being a victim of AI-generated deepfakes during the election campaign, Modi has embraced AI for multilingual political speeches, showcasing its potential for inclusivity and innovation.


US Perspective: Optimism and Collaboration


US Vice President JD Vance echoed the sentiment of optimism, urging European countries to view AI as a frontier of opportunity rather than a source of fear. Vance emphasized the importance of building powerful AI systems in the US using American-designed chips, while also advocating for international collaboration.


"America wants to partner with all of you and embark on the AI revolution with a spirit of openness and collaboration. To build trust, we need international regulatory regimes that foster AI innovation rather than stifle it," Vance said.


India’s AI Mission: Upskilling and Reskilling


India’s AI strategy, under the India AI Mission, focuses on three key areas:


1. Building Compute Capacity: India is investing in cloud-based public-private partnerships to provide AI developers and researchers with the necessary computational resources.

2. Data Accessibility: The government is making publicly available datasets to ensure AI models are built with Indian context and data, opening opportunities in data enrichment and AI development.

3. Upskilling the Workforce: Modi’s emphasis on reskilling and upskilling aims to prepare the population for new job opportunities in AI, addressing fears of mass job losses.


 The Road Ahead: Challenges and Opportunities


While the summit highlighted the potential of AI to drive economic growth and innovation, the absence of the US and the UK from the final declaration raises concerns about global alignment. However, experts like Shashi Shetty, co-founder of the AI for India program, believe this is part of an ongoing conversation. With Modi scheduled to visit the US, discussions on AI governance and collaboration are expected to continue.

How scientists are creating real life invisibility: Can We Ever Truly Disappear?

Image
From spy novels to fantasy epics, invisibility has captivated the human imagination for centuries. The idea of becoming unseen, of moving through the world undetected, holds a powerful allure. But is this fantastical concept destined to remain firmly in the realm of fiction? While true invisibility, like vanishing entirely from sight, might still be a distant dream, scientists are making remarkable strides towards technologies that blur the lines between reality and illusion. The Science of Seeing (and Not Seeing) To understand how invisibility might be achieved, we must first understand how we see. Our eyes perceive objects by detecting the light waves that reflect off them. To make something truly invisible, we need to manipulate these light waves, essentially tricking our eyes into "seeing through" the object. Current Approaches:  * Metamaterials: These artificially engineered materials can manipulate light in unprecedented ways. By altering their structure at the microsco...
