As Ukrinform reports, the press service of the Ministry of Statistics reported this.

“We have to follow global trends in the development of innovations. When it comes to cybersecurity, artificial intelligence can both significantly increase the security of systems and simplify the process of carrying out cyber attacks, making them more successful. Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation Heorhiy Dubynskyi, who represented Ukraine at the summit, said that he is responsible for regulating this technology. “It is important to find a balance between not stopping its development together,” he said.

It was noted that one of the main goals of the declaration is to ensure collective agreement of countries on the development and implementation of risk-oriented artificial intelligence regulatory policies that will prevent negative consequences. It was also emphasized at the summit that artificial intelligence is a beneficial technology for economic growth and sustainable development. However, technology cannot develop without any control and needs established “rules of the game”.

According to the statement made by the UK government, further studies will focus on examining the risks of using artificial intelligence and developing security policies based on them.

It is emphasized that artificial intelligence systems are currently used in many areas of daily life such as housing, employment, transportation, education, health and justice, and that their use is likely to increase, and therefore the risks will also increase.

“Significant risks may arise from potential intentional abuse or unintentional control issues related to compliance with human intent. These problems arise in part because these possibilities have not been fully explored and are therefore difficult to predict. We are concerned about risks in areas such as cybersecurity and biotechnology, where advanced artificial intelligence systems may increase risks such as disinformation. The declaration states that there is the potential for serious, even catastrophic, harm, both intentional and unintentional.

Many of the risks associated with AI are international in nature and “can therefore best be addressed through international cooperation,” the document states.

Russia and the South Caucasus countries did not attend the conference and did not sign the text.

According to Ukrinform, Italy will hold a major conference on artificial intelligence during its G7 presidency next year.
