In recent times, the governance of AI has gained immense attention globally. Leading the charge in this domain is the Boston Global Forum (BGF), which established the AI World Society (AIWS) Initiative in 2017 for global governance of AI and Digital. Notable milestones include the AIWS-G7 Summit 2019 Initiative and the launch of the Social Contract for the AI Age and AIWS City, in collaboration with the World Leadership Alliance-Club de Madrid in September 2020. Notably, in September 2021, the AI International Accord and Global Alliance for Digital Governance (GADG) were introduced by BGF and World Leadership Alliance – Club de Madrid.
BGF Chairman Governor Michael Dukakis and BGF CEO Nguyen Anh Tuan: “The best way to solve challenges, threats, and perils from AI and Digital Transformation is to shape a new society with our innovative, pioneering ideas and concepts.”
From February to April 2023, the Boston Global Forum organized a series of BGF High-level Conferences to develop a Framework for Global Governance of AI. On April 30, 2023, BGF announced the Framework for Global Alliance of AI.
Collaborating with the Global Internet Governance, Digital Empowerment, and Security Alliance (GLIDES) of Civil20 (C20) official engagement group of India’s G20 presidency from May 12, 2023, BGF has taken further actions, encouraging civic society organizations and citizens to contribute to action plans for Global Governance of AI.
BGF and GLIDES are committed to contributing to the C20 – G20 Summit India 2023, with a focus on the following plans:
AI-Powered Enlightenment Alliance (AIEA) for Oversight of AI Systems: Major technology companies, including Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and others, have made significant commitments to AI safeguards brokered by President Joe Biden’s White House. To ensure oversight and responsible development of the next generation of AI systems, BGF, Shinzo Abe Initiative for Peace and Security, GADG, and GLIDES have come together to form the AI-Powered Enlightenment Alliance (AIEA) and will volunteer as third-party oversight.
On July 30, 2023, at C20-G20 Summit India 2023, BGF CEO Nguyen Anh Tuan presented and announced the Special Report on AI Global Governance of the BGF, the GAGD, and the GLIDES. One section of the Report is:
AI-Powered Enlightenment Framework: AI pioneers and scholars like MIT professor Alex Pentland, AI pioneer Thomas Kehler, and Harvard professor David Silbersweig emphasize the importance of equitable data rights, transparency, and a new AI framework that integrates with human collective intelligence. AIEA supports to build AI-powered Enlightenment Framework as a new AI framework that integrates with and engages human collective intelligence. The AI-powered Enlightenment Framework is grounded in neuroscience and is based on the laws of living physics.
AI pioneer Thomas Kehler: “The tremendous power of generative AI is currently is dangerous because of a lack of data provenance and transparency. We must swiftly move forward to adopting a new AI framework that integrates with and engages human collective intelligence. The new framework is grounded in neuroscience and is based on the laws of living physics. While not on the public radar, such technology is available and will build a safe framework for future development.”
Harvard professor David Silbersweig: “Like other transformative technologies, AI can be used for good or ill. The human brain mind and society have pro-social and anti-social elements. Given the powerful ability of AI to accelerate and scale human intentions and to potentially adopt goals of its own, it is imperative that we shape the development and deployment of AI, informed by ethical and the latest integrated understanding of the brain-mind and complex systems.”
Boston Global Forum CEO Nguyen Anh Tuan is a keynote speaker “Technology, Education and Empowerment” at C20 – G20 Summit India, on July 30, 2023.
Nguyen Anh Tuan spoke about “Empowering Lives: How AIWS and Technology Shape,” presented the AIWS – the United Nations Centennial Initiative – the Age of Global Enlightenment and AIWS City, a practical model of AIWS, and its implementation to Global South, with the first phase for India, Brazil, Nigeria, Indonesia, Philippines, and Vietnam.
On behalf of BGF, the Global Alliance for Digital Governance, and the Global Internet Governance, Digital Empowerment, and Security Alliance (GLIDES), Mr. Tuan announced and introduced the Special Report to C20-G20 Summit India 2023.
