In July of this year, The Vatican formed an Artificial Intelligence Round Table with the mission of exploring “how artificial intelligence can be developed and deployed to serve inclusive, just, and human-centered systems.” The group included IASEAI leaders @Yoshua_Bengio, Stuart Russell, and @tegmark, as well as other leading experts such as Geoffrey Hinton, @Abebab, @harari_yuval , and Jimena Viveros. In-person meetings took place in Rome on September 12 and 13, finalizing the draft of a powerful appeal on the global governance of artificial intelligence. The final version, titled "Fraternity in the Age of AI," was read out on September 14 at the Human Constitutional Assembly in Rome by the group’s Vatican liaison, Fr. @paolobenanti, and signed by additional participants including musician and AI entrepreneur @iamwill and Nobel laureates @mariaressa (IASEAI Advisory Board) and Giorgio Parisi. The global collaboration behind this appeal shows what’s possible when we unite around our shared humanity in planning for our future. "Fraternity in the Age of AI" transcends the external mechanics of regulation and policy to address the more fundamental question of what it means to remain human among intelligent machines – IASEAI was founded to foster exactly these kinds of conversations and connections, ensuring AI development serves our deepest human values.

How do we know if AI truly understands what it’s saying? Geoffrey Hinton gave this thought-provoking talk at the inaugural IASEAI’25 conference, exploring whether AI systems truly understand language and why this matters for building safe AI. The International Association for Safe and Ethical AI (IASEAI) is a global, membership-based, non-profit organization. Our mission is to ensure that AI systems operate safely and ethically, benefiting all of humanity. Geoffrey Hinton’s insights on the nature of machine understanding directly inform IASEAI’s mission to ensure that AI development proceeds with appropriate safeguards, especially as these systems become increasingly integrated into critical social functions.

Embarking on a future with AI systems that are more powerful than humans is like getting on an airplane — except that plane will never land, and all of humanity will be on it. That’s why IASEAI was created: humanity can’t get on that airplane until we’ve done our job to make sure that it works perfectly, forever. Reaching this goal will require sustained global coordination. The International Association for Safe and Ethical AI (IASEAI) is a global, membership-based, non-profit organization. Our mission is to ensure that AI systems operate safely and ethically, benefiting all of humanity.

Can we trust AI? “Everyone in the world is getting onto this brand new airplane that really has never been tested before. And it’s going to take off and it’s never going to land. It has to fly, forever.” – Stuart Russell, IASEAI President.

“The development of highly capable AI is likely to be the biggest event in human history. The world must act decisively to ensure it is not the last event in human history. This conference, and the cooperative spirit of the AI Summit series, give me hope; but we must turn hope into action, soon, if there is to be a future we would want our children to live in.” – Stuart Russell, IASEAI President and Distinguished Professor of Computer Science at the University of California, Berkeley

@Yoshua_Bengio says: "We shouldn’t be calling them LLMs anymore. Once we start doing reinforcement learning, they are agents that achieve goals."
