Should governance be in effect before AI developments? | Full Episode | Global Debate

The rapid evolution of AI has long outpaced human capabilities. From the United Nations' arduous adoption of the first global AI governance resolution to the upheaval of elections in multiple countries by deepfake-generated misinformation and the emergence of autonomous weapons in regional conflicts, technology is like an overloaded roller coaster hurtling forward. Yet, regulatory efforts lag far behind, with nations gripping the steering wheel yet trapped in chip blockades, computing power monopolies and a deficit of mutual trust. Under such constraints, are we truly cornered with no choice but to unite for collective governance – or is the so-called "global governance" destined to remain a politically calculated illusion? CGTN presents the special program Global Debate.

Guests on pro-side:
– George Galloway, a seven-term British member of parliament, founder and leader of the Workers Party of Britain, and founder of the independent political talk show "The Mother of All Talk Shows"
– Zoon Ahmed Khan, researcher at the Center for China and Globalization (CCG)
– Leopold Lind, a student at Tsinghua University
– Jiang Xinyu, a student at Tsinghua University

Guests on con-side:
– Liu Shaoshan, director of the Embodied Artificial Intelligence at Shenzhen Institute of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Society
– Einar Tangen, chair of the "Asian Narrative • Fifteenth Five Year Plan" initiative
– Zhao Yixuan, a student at Peking University
– Gavin Cooley, a student at Peking University
