Session Description
This session will focus on strategies that are essential in the development and deployment of artificial intelligence technologies. Among these strategies, maintaining national control over AI capabilities is crucial to ensure that these technologies align with a country’s values, security needs, and economic interests. Additionally, it is imperative that these strategies and technologies prioritize the ethical use of AI, focusing on transparency, fairness, and accountability to mitigate risks such as bias, privacy violations, and unintended consequences.
AI business models are key in exploring commercial strategies that leverage AI technologies to create value and maintain a competitive edge. Enabling technologies like machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision play a pivotal role in these business models, driving both innovation and efficiency. Collectively, these elements highlight the comprehensive approach needed to fully harness AI’s potential while ensuring it aligns with national, economic, and business objectives.
This session will explore the opportunities, technologies, strategies, and business models in the AI era, focusing on why MNOs are uniquely positioned as AI systems integrators. It will address potential challenges such as overcoming technical hurdles, safeguarding privacy and data security, mitigating bias, managing security risks, and promoting transparency through collaborative leadership working with AI ecosystem players.
