My Life Here at THD-Open Discussion Group- Artificial Intelligence( AI)

Ditas Katague with her Big Boss, Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo

Ms. Raimondo is Ditas, my youngest daughter, BIG BOSS.  Ditas is Associate Director for Communications in the Bureau of Census, under the Department of Commerce headed by Raimondo.  

The other day, I attended for the first time the Open Discussion Group Here at THD. Besides current events/news we discussed also Artificial Intelligence- its Risks and Benefits/Governance

This reminded me of the recent article I read in FaceBook on what Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo and Anthony Blinken, the Secretary of State said about AI. 

Here's an excerpt from the article on AI by Raimondo and Blinken as published in Financial Times issue dated July 24, 2023.     

"The US is committed to making AI work for, and designing governance with, developing countries, whose voices are crucial to the global discussion. India will play a critical role, including through the Global Partnership on AI. We are also working on inclusivity for AI through discussions with the UN. We will partner with countries around the world, as well as the private sector and civil society, to advance a key goal of the commitments: creating AI systems that make people’s lives better. Today, we’re on track to meet just 12 per cent of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. AI could change that trajectory by accelerating efforts to deliver clean water and sanitation, eliminate poverty, advance public health and further other development goals".
