@IECStandards, @isostandards, and @ITU at their global conference in Seoul, Republic of Korea, issued a joint commitment to advance the well-being of humanity through #AI #standards. The International Summit on AI Standards, taking place on 2-3 December, explores the complex challenges posed by AI and the opportunity to bridge #digitaldivides through effective international standards. “Standards are technical tools to uphold the principles we want to live by,” said Seizo Onoe (@ITUTSBDirector), “The vision set out by this joint statement calls for diverse expertise and global commitment to collaboration and consensus – exactly what drives our standards work and exactly the spirit needed to create the future we want.” Read the latest #ITU news here: loom.ly/w8vfhis @ITUstandards

HEY THERE! Join us for today's FREE webinar where we'll dissect the latest National Education Technology Plan (NETP), focusing on the three digital divides identified in the 2024 edition. See below to register! forward-edge.net/webinars #educators #digitalaccess #digitaldivides

Digitalisation is a powerful force for emerging markets, but #DigitalDivides persist. Quality improvements and decreasing income inequality are strongly linked with digital technology adoption. Targeted subsidies are one option to expand #Digitalisation bis.org/publ/work1166.htm

Among other things, @tlamanauskas underscored the opportunities of AI as well as its risks and called for collaboration to bridge #digitaldivides and work together to shape a future where digital technology benefits everyone.

Digital to Tackle Wicked Problems is one of the key themes at the upcoming #ICT4D2024 Conference! This theme will explore digital approaches to help solve global challenges, while ensuring #digitaltransformation efforts do not contribute to widening #digitaldivides.
