We only have 5 years to achieve the United Nations’ sustainable development goals, and AI is impacting people and the planet. We are the AI generation, and it is our responsibility to ensure that no one is left behind.
AI for Good is identifying trustworthy AI applications, building skills and standards, and advancing AI governance for sustainable development.
AI for Good is organized by ITU in partnership with over 40 UN Sister Agencies and co-convened with the Government of Switzerland.
Expertise, Artificial Intelligence, and the Work of the Future
This event is organized as part of ITU's AI for Good Series.
In the Information Age, many hoped that technology would level the economic playing field by making information widely accessible. Instead, it concentrated power among experts who use this information to make important decisions. AI, however, presents a unique opportunity to change this dynamic by enhancing human expertise. AI can help more workers, not just elite professionals, take on complex tasks like medical care, legal work, software development, and education. The main argument of this talk is that, if used wisely, AI could help rebuild the middle-skill, middle-class heart of the US labor market that has been hollowed out by automation and globalization.
