Thematic discussion 2: Bridging AI divides - Global Dialogue on Artificial Intelligence Governance - Day 1.


Bridging AI divides: capacity-building, access and digital foundations- 4(b) capacity gaps, with a view to leveraging existing United Nations and multi-stakeholder mechanisms to support AI capacity-building to bridge AI divides, facilitate access to AI applications and build capacity in high-performance computing and related skills in developing countries; 4(g) the development of open-source software, open data and open artificial intelligence models.
  • Structured multistakeholder conversations organised around the proposed thematic clusters derived from the areas identified in the modalities.
  • Will be held in breakout format, with up to two thematic discussions taking place in parallel.
  • Thematic discussions will be co-chaired by a Member State and a relevant stakeholder.
  • Possible format could include brief scene-setting interventions, including from members of the Independent International Scientific Panel or other relevant experts, followed by a moderated panel discussion. These discussions will then be followed by remarks from Member States and relevant stakeholders, based on prior inscription.
  • Discussions will help surface practical policy and cooperation insights, as well as possible priority actions, for consideration in the Co-Chairs' summary.
Location: Av. de la Paix 8-14, 1211 Genève, Switzerland

Science Day 2025: Unlocking Tomorrow's Solutions, Today.

Image
Designed to foster exchange across disciplines and sectors, Science Day has become a recognized platform for identifying where science is contributing to the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Designed to foster exchange across disciplines and sectors, Science Day has become a recognized platform for identifying where science is contributing to the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - and where more integration, support, and innovation are needed. This edition will thus serve both as a strategic stocktaking moment and a platform for 'horizon scanning' - grounded in practice, yet ambitious in scope. It will explore how science is supporting SDG implementation today, where systemic gaps remain, and what kinds of science-policy collaboration will be needed to advance sustainable development in the years to come. It will also consider the complex global context in which this future must be navigated - marked by political fragmentatio...

Scientific paradigm transformation with applications of AI and other disruptive technologies.

Image
Scientific research is undergoing a paradigm shift driven by AI and data-intensive inquiry , moving beyond traditional theoretical and experimental models to a new era of "agentic science" where AI systems become autonomous research partners. This transformation is characterized by AI's ability to analyze massive datasets , generate hypotheses, design experiments, and accelerate discovery at an unprecedented scale, supplementing human creativity rather than replacing it. Disruptive technologies like AI are fundamentally changing scientific processes , leading to more sophisticated, collaborative, and efficient research across all fields. The Key aspects of the transformation are in: Data-intensive inquiry : The integration of AI with the explosion of data from sensors, simulations, and internet platforms has created a "fourth paradigm" of "data-intensive science". Scientific inquiry is becoming more data-driven, with AI capable of extracting patterns...
