WPF has responded to the UN's call for recommendations regarding how it should implement two of its major projects relating to the Global Digital Compact; that is, its pending Global Dialogue on the Governance of AI, and its Scientific Panel on AI.
WPF responded with detailed suggestions , and urged the UN to:
- Ensure a balance of stakeholders are present, with robust regional, national, and subnational representation in its efforts, using the UN/ISO M49 standard.
- Ensure that AI governance tools receive attention, as well as ensuring a focus on the full implementation layer of AI and not just the development layer.
- Work toward creating standards for AI governance tools so AI governance tool metrics are reliable and effective for evaluating AI systems for trustworthy AI and good governance.
- Ensure that the development agenda in AI is meaningfully considered in the work of the panels.
