Context
The rapid acceleration of emerging technologies—particularly generative AI—is amplifying societal, ethical, and geopolitical risks in the absence of robust governance frameworks.
Objectives
- Anticipate and address the disruptive impacts of these technologies to prevent misuse such as disinformation, manipulation, and the erosion of critical thinking—especially among younger generations.
- Foster a culture of responsible innovation and ethical foresight in the development and deployment of transformative technologies.
Actions
- Support the emergence of “polymath thinkers” through fellowships focused on cross-disciplinary themes such as synthetic biology and neurotechnology.
- Facilitate dialogue between scientists, policy leaders, and strategic communities through high-level workshops, policy briefings, and thought leadership publications.
- Raise public awareness of the risks and opportunities of advanced technologies by delivering open-access courses and convening inclusive public forums.
