Twenty-nine countries, including Russia, Belarus, Serbia, Cuba, Brazil, and Venezuela, have signed an agreement to establish the World AI Cooperation Organization, an intergovernmental body that aims to promote international cooperation and global governance in artificial intelligence.
Global AI Governance
The organization’s headquarters will be located in Shanghai, China. The signing ceremony was held in Shanghai on the eve of the annual World Artificial Intelligence Conference, where Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to outline an ambitious vision for Beijing’s role in global AI governance.
China proposed the creation of a World AI Cooperation Organization at last year’s conference, but no countries had formally announced membership until now.
