Open Call for candidates to serve on the UN Independent International Scientific Panel on AI.
The Panel will bring together 40 leading experts to provide impartial, evidence-based assessments on the opportunities, risks, and impacts of AI. The establishment of the Panel will represent a global promise to ensure AI bridges divides rather than deepens them, strengthens trust across borders, and keeps humanity at the center of technological progress.
