 King Charles holds key meeting after Harry, Meghan’s strong message
King Charles seems to be playing a part in the significant conversation that has begun surrounding the new developments being made in tech, an issue that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have extensively spoken about.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who are parents to six-year-old Prince Archie and four-year-old Princess Lilibet, have stressed on the regulation of AI and the legal framework for accountability that needs to be put in place in order to protect young children from its harmful impact. Advertisement
As the discussion about AI grows, the monarch recognised the contributions of some pioneers in tech who have shaped artificial intelligence in the modern times.
Buckingham Palace shared highlights from the meeting in which Charles presented the The Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering at St James’s Palace on Wednesday, celebrating the innovations which are transforming our world.
“This year’s prize honours seven pioneers whose work has shaped modern artificial intelligence,” the statement read.
“Dr Fei-Fei Li has established crucial high-quality datasets to train machine learning algorithms; professors Yoshua Bengio, Geoffrey Hinton, John Hopfield and Dr Yann LeCun have championed artificial neural networks inspired by the human brain as a model for machine learning, whilst Jensen Huang and Dr Bill Dally developed the powerful hardware platforms that make AI possible. Together, their contributions underpin the AI revolution.”
The event comes just weeks after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were invited to join an “unprecedented coalition of world-renowned leaders” including AI scientists, experts, policy makers, and researchers in “calling for a prohibition on the development of AI superintelligence until the technology is reliably safe and controllable and has public buy-in”.
Prince Harry had said, “The future of AI should serve humanity, not replace it. The true test of progress will be not how fast we move, but how wisely we steer.” |
