highlighted AI’s potential to accelerate progress across the SDGs, especially in healthcare, agriculture, education, climate action, public services, and humanitarian response. The recurring question was how to ensure these benefits reach all countries and communities."},{"key":"ai-financing","label":"AI Financing and Investment","description":"Financing was discussed as a prerequisite for inclusive AI development, from national budget allocations to international funds and blended finance. Speakers linked funding to capacity building, infrastructure, innovation ecosystems, and avoiding exclusion of poorer countries."},{"key":"ai-governance","label":"AI Governance","description":"A central theme was how to build national, regional, and global frameworks to govern AI, including interoperable rules, regulatory approaches, and UN-led mechanisms such as the Global Digital Compact, the proposed scientific panel, and a global dialogue on AI governance."},{"key":"future-of-work","label":"Future of Work and Labour Markets","description":"Several speakers examined AI’s effects on productivity, jobs, automation, and labour markets. The discussion included worker protections, reskilling, gendered impacts on employment, and how to ensure AI supports decent work rather than deepening insecurity."},{"key":"equitable-access","label":"Equitable Access and the AI Divide","description":"Speakers repeatedly warned that AI could deepen existing global inequalities unless developing countries gain fair access to opportunity, data, tools, and benefits. The discussion focused especially on avoiding a widening divide between the Global North and the Global South."},{"key":"malicious-ai-use","label":"Malicious Uses of AI","description":"Another recurring concern was the harmful use of AI through deepfakes, misinformation, cyberattacks, political manipulation, and other security risks. Speakers argued that safety measures and governance must address these threats alongside AI’s developmental promise."},{"key":"capacity-building","label":"Capacity Building and AI Skills","description":"Many statements stressed the need to build AI literacy, technical skills, and policy capacity for governments, youth, researchers, workers, and public institutions. Local talent development was presented as essential for countries to shape AI rather than only consume it."},{"key":"rights-and-ethics","label":"Human Rights, Ethics, and Trust","description":"The debate frequently framed AI governance around human rights, ethical principles, and public trust. This included transparency, accountability, privacy, fairness, bias mitigation, inclusion, and protection of women, children, and marginalized communities."},{"key":"digital-infrastructure","label":"Digital Infrastructure and Compute","description":"A major topic was the lack of enabling infrastructure needed for AI, including reliable internet, electricity, data centers, GPUs, datasets, and affordable compute. Speakers noted that without these foundations, many countries cannot deploy or benefit from AI at scale."},{"key":"multistakeholder-partnerships","label":"Multi-stakeholder Partnerships","description":"Many interventions emphasized that governments cannot manage AI alone and that effective action requires partnerships with the private sector, academia, civil society, international organizations, and regional bodies. Collaboration was presented as necessary for both innovation and safeguards."}]}}
