AI Action Summit: Take Part in Our Online Public and Academic Consultation
As world leaders prepare to meet in France in early 2025 for the AI Action Summit, the Technology and Global Affairs Innovation Hub of Sciences Po's Paris School of International Affairs (PSIA), the AI and Society Institute, The Future Society, CNNum and Make.org, in partnership with the French Presidency, are launching an online consultation to gather ideas on how the governance of artificial intelligence (AI) can serve the public interest.
« More than just a technology, AI will shape our collective future. This consultation is an unprecedented opportunity for academics and citizens to contribute to creating a framework that will put AI at the service of all while preserving our values and freedoms. »
Constance de Leusse
Incoming Executive Director, affiliated with Sciences Po and the AI & Society Institute, ENS PSL.
Open Consultation to Engage Citizens, Academics, and Civil Society
As the ongoing AI revolution transforms jobs, health, culture, economies, and more across every region of the world, global governance that reflects collective deliberation is crucial. In February 2025, the AI Action Summit, on the initiative of French President Emmanuel Macron, will bring together the world's institutions, governments, and experts in France to draw up an ambitious framework for concrete responses to major challenges.
In order to widely involve civil society and the academic community in the work of the Summit, Sciences Po and its partners have launched a landmark online consultation. A summary of the contributions received will be made public and presented in December 2024 to the Summit organisers.
Take part before 25 November
The consultation is open for participation in English or French from 18 September to 15 November 2024. There are two ways of contributing to the work of the AI Action Summit:
- For citizens and civil society: An interactive online debate for citizens to submit and vote on ideas for putting AI in service of the general interest.
- For academic experts, research institutes, and civil society organisations: A platform to submit written contributions to the Summit's key themes.
