The two-day global summit will be held on Monday. Representatives from 80 nations will attend. This time, the US will have to sit back and listen as tech competition with AI reaches new heights, beginning with the AI startup DeepSeek. The function of the global summit is to discuss current progress, and future goals, for the rapidly-evolving, hugely-disruptive technology that is AI. World leaders, tech bosses, academics, and other experts will be present. AI is changing the world—let’s make sure it benefits everyone! 📅On 10-11 Feb. we will be at the heart of the #AIActionSummit , spotlighting Global South voices, showcasing innovative projects, and leading conversations on inclusive & ethical AI 👉 https://t.co/a79O4XZAvY pic.twitter.com/sjr4i50bJJ — Paris Peace Forum (@ParisPeaceForum) February 4, 2025 DeepSeek has the opportunity to be officially recognised globally for its achievement. For China the timing of the summit could not be better. China is likely to be the guest of honor. According to reports, the country will send one of its top leaders, Ding Xuexiang, a close friend of President Xi Jinping. However, it is unclear whether Liang Wenfeng, the creator of DeepSeek, will join him. On the other hand, the US is showing its strength by sending important leaders, including Vice President JD Vance, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and Google’s Sundar Pichai. This is as a way to defend itself. India will not be left behind. India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said he will attend this meeting. This will be the first time he attends an AI global summit. Anticipated conversations in the global summit There have been two earlier summits. The first one took place in the UK, and the second one was in South Korea. In the first gathering of the AI community at Bletchley House in November 2023 they committed to enhancing the positive aspects of AI and reducing the risks. Since then a lot has taken place. From AI lawsuits to stiff competition globally. DeepSeek is expected to clear the air on how it bypassed the previously best US AI in the presence of US AI leaders. This is because it is still unclear whether the AI startup built the chatbot was built using a number of Nvidia chips and some open source AI architecture developed by Meta. In addition, OpenAI has complained that rivals (DeepSeek) are using its work in order to advance their own AI. Despite this, DeepSeek managed to disrupt the AI industry in a way that even AI itself might not have expected. It caused many of the largest companies to lose a lot of money. It will definitely be a big topic of discussion in the meeting rooms in Paris. AI security is also expected to be a topic of discussion just as it was in the first summit. AI has been associated with a variety of risks. One is the ongoing development of AI-controlled weapons by multiple countries, the potential for AI to create unstoppable computer viruses, the generation and spread of misinformation, and displays of bias and discrimination against individuals or races. Finally, France, the summit host, has not had much to show when it comes to AI. Europe sees a chance to compete for leadership in AI. An official from French President Emmanuel Macron’s team told reporters that the meeting was a “wake-up call” for France and Europe. They stressed that Europe needs to keep up with the AI revolution and not fall behind. OpenAI’s leader, Sam Altman, is traveling across Asia. In other news, OpenAI is in DeepSeek’s territory, looking for ways to do business. In Tokyo, OpenAI made a deal with SoftBank, a major Japanese financial company, to provide AI services to businesses. Altman went to South Korea for another deal. Altman said OpenAI will share its technology with KakaoTalk, the leading chat app in the country. He said, “We are particularly interested in AI and messaging. I think there is really a rich thing to explore there that can improve the experience a lot for users.” Altman also made a visit to India. According to reports, Altman talked with the IT minister about the country’s plan to create an affordable AI system. Next, Altman is planning to visit the United Arab Emirates to talk about raising money with an investor group in Abu Dhabi. Cryptopolitan Academy: FREE Web3 Resume Cheat Sheet - Download Now
