UNESCO: Artificial Intelligence and the Rule of Law
Interview with Dr. Tawfik Jelassi, UNESCO Assistant Director-General on the upcoming General Conference in November, when country members submit the draft text of a global framework for Ethical AI.
Judicial Systems, Artificial Intelligence, and Rule of Law
This coming November, at UNESCO's General Conference, the recommendations to guide the development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence will be presented in the hope of establishing a global ethical framework. The draft text was negotiated among country-members and stakeholders in the fields of technology and law for the past two years, and it incorporates the results of surveys and consultations with other civil society actors as well.
UNESCO offered training in AI and the rule of law to 23.000 members of the judicial system in 150 countries so far, and will continue the roll-out of AI and the rule of law courses in early 2022 (registration starts in November), as countries are asking for guidance in the development of their policies and in a broad range of governance issues.
