Ljubljana, 10 October 2023
Dear Minister,
I am pleased to invite you to the second edition of the Global Forum on the Ethics of
Artificial Intelligence (GFEAI 2024), hosted by the Republic of Slovenia under the
auspices of UNESCO on 5 and 6 February 2024 in the Brdo Congress Centre, Slovenia.
The rapid rise of artificial intelligence has created many opportunities globally, from
facilitating healthcare diagnoses to enabling human connections through social media
and creating labour efficiencies through automated tasks. However, these accelerating
changes also raise profound ethical concerns that such technologies could jeopardise
human rights and freedoms and exacerbate existing inequalities. The release into the
public domain and massive growth in the user base of AI foundation models such as
ChatGPT has been fuelling debate about the risks they pose to work, education, scientific
research, and democracy, as well as their potential negative impacts on cultural diversity
and cross-cultural interactions, among other areas.
Building on the momentum of the first edition of the Forum hosted by the Czech Republic
in December 2022, the 2024 Forum will feature a high-level segment, as well as a series
of expert panels. The eminent speakers will discuss the ethical challenges posed by AI
technologies and evidence-based policy solutions to ensure environmental sustainability,
diversity, and gender equality, while facilitating AI research, development and
application aimed to achieve positive social outcomes.
The Global Forum brings together key AI stakeholders from across the world, including
policymakers, experts, and thought leaders, to discuss the governance of AI based on the
latest technological and policy developments and the global experience of implementing
UNESCO’s Recommendation on the Ethics of AI, including through the application of
the Readiness Assessment Methodology and the Ethical Impact Assessment tool.
A detailed programme of the event with supporting documents will be provided to you in
due course.
I sincerely hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you to the Global Forum on the Ethics
of Artificial Intelligence in the picturesque Brdo Estate.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Emilija Stojmenova Duh
