However, there is lack of international regulations and oversight in the development of AI applications which may pose unintended negative consequences in the long term. This is because there may be a likelihood of AI being influenced due to human intervention, thereby exacerbating some of the social challenges that it aims to address, and we may see the same socio-cultural dynamics trickling down into the AI transformation.<\/p>\n<p>Through this focus area, AIPL aims to build global discourse to bring about a balance in the development of AI applications to be achieved through global governance on AI Principles, ethics and its subsequent usage across the spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>We will work with global partnerships and governments in this area to inform discussions.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_container=&#8221;true&#8221; el_class=&#8221;bt-reverse&#8221;][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-offset-4 vc_col-lg-8 vc_col-md-offset-4 vc_col-md-8 vc_col-sm-offset-0&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3296&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;bounceInRight&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-7 vc_col-md-7&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Service 02&#8243; font_container=&#8221;tag:div|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeInDown&#8221; el_class=&#8221;bt-text-uppercase bt-main-color&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;AI for Social Good&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|font_size:36px|text_align:left|line_height:46px&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeInUp&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;fadeInUp&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a5631ab elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"27563\" data-id=\"a5631ab\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9f19c7e\" data-eae-slider=\"53466\" data-id=\"9f19c7e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bcf8f3d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bcf8f3d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n<p>Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and Emerging Technologies present an opportunity to build better tools and solutions to help address some of the world\u2019s most pressing challenges, and deliver positive social impact in accordance with the priorities outlined in the United Nations\u2019 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n<p>Our work through this focus area centers around supporting core research and fundamental policies which will enable AI to be used for addressing these societal challenges.
