\nThe Mobile Learning Week 2019, under the theme “Artificial Intelligence for Sustainable development<\/strong>” co- organized by UNESCO<\/a>, the International Telecommunication Union<\/a>, the ProFuturo Foundation<\/a> and Skillogs<\/a>, was held from 4 to 8 March 2019, at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris, France. <\/p>\n

The five-day event started with the “Global Conference – Principles for AI: Towards a humanistic approach ?<\/strong>“, followed by a one-day Policy Forum and Workshops, a two-day International Symposium and a half-day of Strategy Labs. <\/p>\n

UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay said \u201cThe issues raised by artificial intelligence are not technological. They concern our own humanity, raising scientific, political, philosophical and ethical questions.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Angel Gurr\u00eda, Secretary-General of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)<\/a> spoke of the need for cooperation to ensure that AI becomes a driver of inclusive and sustainable growth. \u201cWe have to get this right, because while AI is driving optimism, it is also fuelling anxieties and ethical concerns.\u201d
\n <\/p>\n

“The time is more than ripe to define the ethical principles that must serve as a foundation and framework of this disruption; to ensure that AI serves collective choices, based on humanist values.”<\/b><\/div>\n
UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nThroughout the global conference, academics, representatives of intergovernmental organizations, government ministers, the private sector, members of the technical community, the media, and civil society called for the development of ethical principles to govern AI on the basis of transparency and accountability.<\/p>\n

They stressed the need for open data that is respectful of privacy. They stressed the importance of data, which goes beyond information traditionally collected by public services, as it informs the predictions and decisions that already allow AI to contribute to the treatment of diseases, the management of water resources and agricultural planning, for example.<\/p>\n

But data is not neutral, and several participants pointed out that making technology serve humanity required data that is truly representative and inclusive, which poses a problem considering that half the world\u2019s population remains unconnected to the internet.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

GONG Ke, President-Elect of WFEO, was invited as keynote speaker at the international symposium and represented the Scientific and Technological (STC) Major Group<\/a> of United Nations, which includes WFEO and the International Science Council<\/a> to call for:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Getting consensus on AI ethical principles;<\/li>\n
  2. Studying on how to convert these consensuses to policies, rules, laws, etc;<\/li>\n
  3. Setting technical standards, to ensure the ethical requirements to be effectively embedded into AI system and could be tested and verified;<\/li>\n
  4. Educating people, who designing, manufacturing, selling and using AI, how to responsible conduct with AI.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Mobile Learning Week is UNESCO’s flagship ICT in education conference. Held annually since 2011, the event convenes experts from around the world to share how affordable and powerful advanced technology can accelerate learning for all.<\/p>\n
