The annual AI for Good conference hosted by the U.N. telecommunications agency is aimed at providing guidance to businesses, consumers, and governments on how to benefit from new technology while avoiding potential risks. The event features presentations and discussions on artificial intelligence applications for various fields such as robotics, medicine, education, and sustainable development.
One of the featured speakers at the event is Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. He will discuss the ChatGPT system developed by his company which has gained attention for its ability to generate text, images, and videos based on a vast database of online content. Other major tech companies like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon are also active in the field of AI.
Despite the potential benefits of artificial intelligence, concerns have been raised about its impact on issues such as bias, misinformation, and security threats. The spread of computer-generated content across social media and the Internet has blurred the line between fake news and reality. There is a growing need to ensure that AI technology is used responsibly and ethically.
U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres emphasized the importance of using AI to address challenges such as improving education, healthcare, agriculture, and disaster response. He also highlighted the need to support developing countries in adopting AI technology and connecting people around the world who currently lack access to these tools.
The conference aims to bridge the gap between technological advancements in AI and their responsible use by promoting ethical guidelines that ensure that these technologies are used for human benefit rather than creating harm. By addressing these issues head-on through this conference’s discussions and presentations on AI applications across different sectors
