Experts advocate international AI cooperation, governance

Beate Trankmann, representative of the United Nations Development Program in China, said AI has played an important role in fighting COVID-19 and climate change. However, human biases can also find their way into AI technologies and potentially perpetuate prejudice and discrimination. As the application of AI becomes more and more omnipresent across the world, international cooperation will be essential to build consensus on common approaches to AI governance that are ethical and fair.
