Responsible AI a Global Imperative for Governments and Business – Now and the Future

Abstract: 

AI is ever more ubiquitous in our lives but all countries are not created equal in their access to or use of AI. Likewise all countries and businesses do not adhere to the same regulatory frameworks or opinions on governance. Yet all companies would benefit from knowing where they stand so that investment in technology is not ultimately wasted. Likewise, access to AI is being used as a geopolitical tool. What lessons are we able to draw and adopt now and how might this thinking mature into the future.
