💡 #AI integration has become a huge development trend worldwide. In line with UNIDO’s focus on AI and following the trend, this year’s #BridgeforCities event will feature “Improving governance and the application of artificial intelligence (AI)” as one of the five focus areas. 📘 As the event concept notes: “Effective governance is essential for addressing the complex challenges of #urbanization and ensuring the delivery of quality public services to residents. The event will explore the role of AI technologies in enhancing #UrbanGovernance, improving decision-making processes, and increasing the efficiency of service delivery. By leveraging data analytics, predictive modeling, and citizen engagement platforms, cities can enhance transparency, accountability, and responsiveness in governance. Moreover, it will emphasize the importance of participatory approaches, institutional capacity-building, and regulatory frameworks in fostering inclusive and sustainable #UrbanDevelopment.” ✅ Incorporating AI in the discussion for the event theme "Innovative Solutions for the Cities of Tomorrow" demonstrates our commitments to leveraging this useful resource in urban governance and development, and to enhanced synergy with other AI-related initiatives within and beyond the Organization towards effective and efficient application of AI. 🌐 As a flagship initiative of UNIDO on urban-industrial sustainable development, the event's 9th edition is scheduled from 9 to 11 October 2024 and will take place in the Vienna International Centre in Vienna, Austria. 🔗 To learn more about the #BridgeforCities 2024, please click the link: https://lnkd.in/giEbUaah

Building India's AI Ecosystem | AI Ethics & Governance| Co-creator of INDIAai | Mozilla Responsible Computing Lead for India 🦊
Oxford Insights has released AI Governance Index for 2023. While USA continues leads the index, followed closely by Singapore and the UK.A notable shift in 2023 sees half of the AI strategies emerging from low and lower-middle-income countries, with Rwanda setting a precedent. High-income nations continue to dominate the Technology Sector, though countries like Malaysia and the BRIC nations are making significant strides. As a past regional expert for South Asia, I'm intrigued by the shifts seen in India's performance in the AI Governance Index 2023 by Oxford Insights. India has experienced a shift, moving from 32nd in 2022 to 40th in 2023 globally. This change highlights the evolving landscape of AI governance and readiness. India continues to demonstrate strong performance in the Government and Technology Sector pillars, ranking in the top 30 and 50 globally, respectively. However, there are challenges in the Data and Infrastructure pillar, where India ranks 66th globally. These insights underscore the importance of balanced growth across all dimensions of AI readiness. India's journey reflects both its strengths in governance and technology and areas for continued development in data infrastructure. read the full report : https://lnkd.in/g3QZk-_g Richard Stirling, Pablo Fuentes Nettel, Emma Hankins, Sulamaan R., Annys Rogerson #AIGovernance #IndiaAI #GlobalTech #InnovationLeadership

🚀 Building a Leading AI Ecosystem in Europe: Progress and Challenges The EU has ambitious plans to establish Europe as a leader in AI, but the journey is facing significant hurdles. While the framework aligns with global standards, challenges in coordination and governance are slowing progress. 🔍 Key Findings and Implications: Coordination and Governance Gaps: Effective collaboration between the EU and member states on AI investment and strategy is lacking, limiting the impact of the plans. Unclear and Outdated Targets: Vague long-term investment targets for AI are not adequately monitored or updated, reducing accountability. Slow Progress on Data Sharing and Regulation: Efforts to enable data sharing and establish AI regulations are still in early stages, hindering ecosystem growth. Limited Impact of Enablers: Initiatives to provide capital support and infrastructure for AI innovation have faced delays and coordination issues, limiting their effectiveness. Gaps in Exploiting Research Results: There is insufficient support for the commercialization and application of AI research, reducing the return on investment. 🔑 The Way Forward: Strengthen governance mechanisms. Set clearer and more measurable targets. Accelerate data and regulatory framework implementation. Improve the translation of AI research into real-world innovation and impact. It's crucial for the EU to address these challenges to truly harness the potential of AI and establish a robust, competitive AI ecosystem in Europe. https://lnkd.in/dUSmd4ZD 💡 #AI #Innovation #EU #TechPolicy #Governance #DataSharing

[PRESS RELEASE] 𝗜𝗡𝗢 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝗯𝗲𝗰 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗼𝗻 Confiance IA – Quebec’s industrial consortium for the development of sustainable, ethical, secure, and responsible artificial intelligence – has mandated INO to promote the Confiance IA collaborative approach with technology companies in metropolitan Quebec. INO will therefore contribute to the implementation of collaborative R&D projects to develop trusted artificial intelligence by bringing together several experts who will develop solutions adopted by several industrial sectors in Quebec. In the case of this three-year project, INO – which has greatly contributed to changing the economic profile of Quebec by bringing to life dozens of new technology companies that export their products on the international scene – will therefore have the role, among others, to: 🔹 invite companies to join the Confiance IA consortium; 🔹 rally industries in different fields around joint R&D projects involving trusted artificial intelligence; 🔹 contribute to the creation in Quebec of an ecosystem of experts capable of developing pre-competitive tools and methods for assessing the quality of the artificial intelligence developed, particularly in terms of sturdiness and explainability; 🔹 generate, thanks to various projects, shared intellectual property to create synergies and accelerate the adoption of the solutions developed by industrial environments.
