🌐 Shaping an Inclusive AI Future🌐 We’re thrilled to share that our session, “Enabling AI for All, AI by All,” on 9th December at the India Internet Governance Forum (IIGF) 2024 has been officially recognised as part of the ‘Road to the AI Action Summit’ initiative! This initiative seeks to consolidate events centered on the future of AI governance, serving as a catalyst for discussions at France's AI Action Summit in February 2025. The session delved into AI's potential to drive societal impact and foster inclusion. The distinguished panel shared insights on how AI can empower underserved communities, reduce inequalities, and bridge societal divides. Here are the key themes that emerged: ✨ Inclusive AI Governance to tackle bias and ensure equity. ✨ Leveraging India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) as a model for accessibility. ✨ Prioritizing AI skilling and gender inclusivity in tech ecosystems. ✨ Empowering marginalized communities as not just users but creators in the AI lifecycle. 💡 Takeaway: AI must serve all of humanity, not just the privileged. Together, let's design a future where AI drives inclusion, equity, and opportunity for everyone.
