Conclusion: Harnessing Multistakeholder Governance for Advancing AI Sovereignty, Transparency, and Accountability
摘要
This paper offers a conclusion for the volume’s core task of exploring AI sovereignty, transparency, and accountability. These debates are far from settled and an expanding body of literature, from a wide range of stakeholders is contributing to enlighten the many challenges and opportunities inherent in AI governance. Hence, multistakeholder cooperation emerges as indispensable in confronting these challenges and identifying these opportunities. The chapter argues that multistakeholder cooperation, both in policy development and implementation, emerges as a fundamental imperative for achieving responsible and inclusive AI governance that aligns with societal values and aspirations. However, it also emphasises that stakeholders engaging in AI governance face significant challenges both as regards achieving a shared understanding of AI sovereignty, transparency, and accountability, and the design and implementation of strategies and policies able to realise such concepts in an effective way. To conclude this chapter calls for the elaboration of a Multistakeholder Framework for AI Sovereignty, Transparency, and Accountability, an idea that could be further explored by the Data and AI Governance Coalition and UN IGF stakeholders.
