PM Anutin proposes tri-pillar AI governance framework at Shanghai summit

10 Sept 17:05 Key points summarised by AI

Thai PM Anutin Charnvirakul proposed a tri-pillar AI governance framework at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference, stressing public protection, unlocking human potential, and fostering shared prosperity.
The 'Protection' pillar focuses on safeguarding human rights, privacy, and dignity, while mitigating risks like bias, hate speech, deepfakes, and disinformation, aligning with UNESCO's ethical recommendations.
The 'Potential' pillar aims for predictable and trustworthy regulatory frameworks that foster technological innovation without stifling it, ensuring public confidence and balanced development.
The 'Prosperity' pillar advocates harnessing AI to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by improving education, public healthcare, and state services, and creating opportunities, particularly for developing nations to be co-creators.
Thailand commits to these principles through its AI Governance Practice Centre, serving as a sandbox for testing international AI governance standards, and urges global collaboration over geopolitical competition in AI development.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
