Davos 2024: It is AI everywhere

As I walk through the Promenade street sometimes multiple times in a day, I can say that it is dominated by the presence of Indian state governments, Indian technology companies, as also the countries of the Middle East. If it was all about cautious optimism and expectations of the global economy managing a soft landing yesterday, the three existentialist threats are ruling the dialogues everywhere I go– Artificial Intelligence, climate change and the wars across the globe. The United Nations chief Antonio Guterres is one of the latter – he appealed to all leaders to create a global strategy for the AI threats that could crop up. He has echoed what several other leaders have been saying for some time – the need for a global coordination on AI that would see appropriate guardrails being put in place. The eruption of new regional wars is not only leading to worries regarding world peace but also the economic impact in the form of protracted supply chain issues that are giving every business leader jitters, especially at a time when global growth needs a significant push.
