[Parliamentary Session 3] Researching at the frontier: Insights from the private sector in developing large-scale AI systems

Description

Innovation is a crucial element of societal development. As the core driver for modern existence, it addresses social needs and resolves collective problems, by contributing, among others, to economic growth, job creation and poverty reduction. Innovation can, however, disrupt markets. With the rapid development and adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially generative AI, societies are confronted with new risks and challenges.
During this session, parliamentarians will interact with representatives of a private sector company that develops large-scale AI systems and researches the safety and societal impact of its models as the technology becomes increasingly advanced and capable.
