The leaders of the world’s largest economies on Saturday called for international standards for rapid advancements in artificial intelligence, making clear that the push was a priority but failing to come to any significant conclusions about how to handle the emerging technology.
In their joint statement Saturday, leaders of the world’s richest democracies gathered for the Group of Seven summit, acknowledged that despite the rapid growth of AI and immersive technologies such as metaverses, international rules governing their use and compliance have “not necessarily kept pace.”
They said while such new technologies bring opportunities to promote sustainability and innovation in various industries, their challenges must be considered alongside the benefits.
New technologies should be governed in line with democratic values, they wrote — including fairness, accountability, transparency, protection from online abuse and respect for privacy and human rights.
