💥 What happened during one of the largest AI & Cyber crisis exercise ever organized for #AIActionSummit Paris? On February 11th, we took part in an unprecedented AI crisis simulation led by ANSSI - Agence nationale de la sécurité des systèmes d'information at Campus Cyber. 200 participants from 20 countries joined this large-scale exercise with one objective: strengthening collaboration between AI developers and cybersecurity specialists to better anticipate and mitigate emerging threats. We were involved both in the scenario design and the facilitation of the exercise with a dedicated team: Capucine de Nomazy, Gaël Audinet, Thomas Argheria 🧭, Justin Leblanc, Lucile Briolat, Gerome Billois and Martin D'ACREMONT. Together, we guided discussions, challenged participants with crisis stimuli, and captured key insights to enhance future AI security strategies.

Can democracy survive AI without limits? AI is reshaping our world at an unprecedented pace. Without strong democratic safeguards, it risks undermining the very principles we cherish. However, only resilient democracies can ensure AI innovation remains fair, ethical, and beneficial to all. At the AI Action Summit, we have signed a historic pact between AI and democracy. At the heart of the discussions on the Welcoming Event who brought together 100+ global leaders, we were delighted to share insights with our peers. Highlights included: 🔹 Grand Opening Event – Setting the stage for a crucial dialogue 🔹 World-Class Conferences & Debates – Featuring top voices in AI & Democracy 🔹 Launch of the Worldwide Alliance for AI & Democracy – Uniting researchers, NGOs, companies & institutions for responsible AI. The future of AI is being shaped now. Join us in ensuring it serves democracy, not disrupts it. Imene KABOUYA Cedric Baecher Gerome Billois Julien FLOCH
