AI cannot be governed for the many if it is only built by and for the few.

“Youth Advocates Gather in New York to Launch New AI Standards“ (UN News’ coverage on IOY’s historic Youth and AI Summit)

“Following various discussions and workshops organized by the International Organization of Youth, delegates presented a Youth-led Declaration on AI Policy and Governance. It will inform future UN-led efforts to shape global AI governance, especially the Global Digital Compact.

The event builds on previous UN efforts to integrate youth voices into decision making processes on AI, including the Global Dialogue on AI Governance, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Secretary-General’s Youth Advisory Board and the Science, Technology and Innovation Forum.

The future of AI should not simply happen to your generation. Your generation must actually help shape it.” (UN News)
