Nguyen Anh Tuan, Co-Founder, Co-Chair and CEO of the Boston Global Forum and Founder and Chief Architect of AIWS, presents a vision for transforming the principles of AIWS Civilization into a shared global undertaking.
In his remarks prepared for the BGF Conference 2026 at Harvard University on November 10, Nguyen Anh Tuan outlines a defining ambition for the AI Age: a new civilization built upon human dignity, sovereign human judgment, and Human–AI Co-Creation.
At the heart of this vision are four Cornerstone Cities—Hanoi, Tokyo, Rome, and Boston—representing Wisdom, Creativity, Love, and Nobility. Together with Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Osaka–Kyoto, and Nha Trang, they form the eight Founding Cities of AIWS Civilization, connecting intellectual leadership, technological innovation, cultural values, and institutional responsibility.
Looking toward the tenth anniversary of AIWS in 2027, the address sets out three commitments: strengthening the constitutional and trust foundations of the AI Age, bringing Human–AI Co-Creation into the lives of communities, and making progress visible and accountable through the Human–AI Co-Creation Atlas.
The message is both a civilizational vision and a call to action: “Humanity leads. AI elevates. Together, we create.”
