argument: Eventi/Events - Digital Governance

According to an article from the Digital Watch Observatory, South Korea is set to host the second global Artificial Intelligence (AI) Safety Summit on May 21-22, 2024, after the UK hosted the inaugural event at Bletchley Park in November of the previous year. The summit aims to address the potential risks associated with AI technologies and to discuss strategies for their safe development and implementation. This follows a commitment made at the earlier Bletchley Park summit where a declaration was signed by 28 countries, including major players like the US and China, to collaborate on enhancing AI safety. The forthcoming summit in South Korea is part of a collaborative effort involving various stakeholders including governments, AI companies, civil society, and academia. The event highlights South Korea's increasing influence in global digital policy discussions and its role as a responsible leader in the governance of emerging technologies​ (Korea Economic Institute of America)​​ (Digital Watch Observatory)​.
