In your opinion, what outcomes would make the first Global Dialogue on AI Governance a success?
Firm guidelines on how AI is to be introduced, in what roles and in what spheres. Limits on AI creation need to consider how costly it is in terms of water and other resources. AI in creative fields is abhorrent to me. Many young people are concerned that there will be no jobs for them since AI may be cheaper than human employees. As with uses of our material resources as that impacts the climate, a cheap dollar cost can be expensive for the globe and humans.
From your perspective, which of the following thematic areas identified by the General Assembly Resolution 79/325 for the AI Dialogue reflect your priorities for urgent action and active engagement?
- Protection and promotion of human rights
- Open-source software, open data and open AI models
- Social, economic, ethical, cultural, linguistic and technical implications of AI
- Safe, secure and trustworthy AI
Please briefly explain your selection.

What role can the AI Dialogue play in advancing international cooperation on AI governance?
Sorry, I'm not knowledgeable about this.
What are some of the existing initiatives, partnerships, or mechanisms that the AI Dialogue should build upon or connect with, and what added value could the AI Dialogue bring?
I don't know.
How can different stakeholders contribute to the AI Dialogue? Please share recommendations for the format and structure of the AI Dialogue.
Working people and their organizations should always be at the table. Plus some of the experts who have sounded the alarm about AI used.
Which voices, communities, or perspectives are currently underrepresented in global discussions on AI governance? How could they be included?
Again, working people, indigenous communities, farmers and other people who usually are unrepresented. Definitely people from the Third World--African, South America, Asia, and not just "leaders" in those area.
What innovative engagement formats could most effectively foster meaningful and dynamic engagement during the AI Dialogue?
Town halls in rural areas
