Help AI World Series code & catalogue AI champions advancing humanity and matching opportunities of sustainability goals and millennials' world champions
we are witnessing one of the greatest technological leaps in the history of human endeavor the rapid rise of powerful artificial intelligence is considered by many of the greatest thinkers of our age to be no less significant no less important than the discovery of electricity, the splitting of the atom, the creation of the worldwide web or even the harnessing of fire
AI holds the potential to completely transform Life as we know it; to help us better treat and perhaps even cure conditions like cancer heart disease and Alzheimer's to hasten our journey towards net zero and realize a new era of potentially Limitless clean green energy even just to help us make our everyday lives a bit easier
however if we are to realize the untold benefits of AI then we must work together on combating its significant risks; too AI continues to advance with ever greater speed towards models that some predict could surpass human abilities , even human
understanding; there is a clear imperative to to ensure that this rapidly evolving technology remains safe and secure and because AI does not respect International boundaries this Mission demands International coordination and collaboration.
To support this Global effort the United Kingdom is proud to host this Summit in Bletchley Park the birthplace of modern Computing where Alan Turing famously cracked  the Enigma code and laid the foundations for a new digital age. Transitions like the one AI is heralding always presents profound challenges especially in preparing for unintended consequences; it is incumbent on those with responsibility to meet these challenges to protect people's privacy and livelihoods which are essential to both our economic and psychological well-being to secure our democracies from harm and to ensure the benefits of new technology are shared by all. I've always believed in the importance of holding a conversation both within and across societies to address such great challenges of bringing governments in the public sector together with civil society and the private sector in that conversation adhering to the values tenants of faith and laws that we all held so dear. That is how the International Community has sought to tackle climate change to light a path to Net Zero and Safeguard the future of our planet we must similarly address the risks presented by AI with a sense of urgency unity and Collective Strength so on behalf of the United Kingdom I want to thank you all for the vital role you are playing in this shared Endeavor for laying the foundations of a lasting consensus on AI safety and for ensuring that this immensely powerful technology is indeed a Force for good in this world

The Nvidia A100 is the workhorse of today’s AI ecosystem. This week on No Priors, Sarah Guo and Elad Gil sit down with Jensen Huang, the founder and CEO of NVIDIA, at their Santa Clara headquarters. Jensen co-founded the company in 1993 with a goal to create chips that accelerated graphics. Over the past thirty years, NVIDIA has gone far behind gaming and become a $674B behemoth. Jensen talks about the meaning of this broader platform shift for developers, making very long term bets in areas such as climate and biopharma, their next-gen Hopper chip, why and how NVIDIA chooses problems that are unsolvable today, and the source of his iconic leather jackets. 00:00 - Introduction 01:26 - The early days when Jensen Co-founded NVIDIA 04:58 - Why NVIDIA started to expand its aperture to artificial intelligence use cases 10:42 - The moment in 2012 Jensen realized AI was going to be huge 13:52 - How we’re in a broader platform shift in computer science 17:48 - His vision for NVIDIA’s future lines of business 18:09 - How NVIDIA has two motions: Shipping reliable chips and solving new use cases 25:41 - Why no one should assume they’re right for the job of CEO and why not every company needs to be architected as the US military 31:39 - What’s next for NVIDIA’s Hopper 32:57 - Durability of Transformers 35:08 - What Jensen is excited about in the future of AI & his advice for founders

Au revoir AGI bonjour UPKLM

ROI in 1.5 Days sounds like 8 billion people's intel could benefit linking 1.5

- Well giddy up : actually (having been Bradford Business Schools Senior Visiting Fellow of Exponential Risk Mapping in 1990s while seconded to WPP and PWC) I like Joshua Bengio (sincerely a decent mathematician beyond my grain cells), but yesterday, did 23 heads of nations (mediated by Korea & UK) truly need to discuss this sort of presentation (or the full monty footnoted) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDLfV4MU1Ns ??

ALTERNATIVE ROUTE TO LAST 120 DAYs OF UN FUTURE (NY sept 2024) let alone Macron-Charles AI World Series 3: I am writing to Royaume Unie Events producer Michelle D

to suggest much better time management could have been gravitated by yesterday's Death of PC Aged 40

and tomorrows future-medicine briefing Johns Hopkins by founders of Pixar & Nvidia

Can we discuss  2 by 2 race. Exponential Renewability of generations not ending generations. Edu agency of Very Good Intel not very bad intel.

Yesterday saw death of personal computer at age of 40. If any of Neumann-Einstein-Turing had survived to moon landing, I expect they would have giant leaped to GTU design then

Its being replaced by multivariable analysis supplied chains such as collabs of eg Jensen Huang, Michael Dell, Founder of Pixar, John Hopkins component of Bloomberg Hopkins,, Demis Hassabis, Kings Estate which owns Cambridge Business Park as potential twin of Stanford as well as BBC Nature :Taiwanese Mother Tongue and Kings English are in play as is UN or whatever multilateral system maps value openly and trans-society. Plus anyone's "Truth" you nominates as uniting (time , data , trust not just money) of 8 billion peoples good intel  (Evidence Eg Fazle Abed microfranchises of billion female villagers) and exponential renewability of generations. According to dad's notes with The Economist: and Von Neumann: King Charles (as prince he was delegated to attend Tokyo Olympics) and Japan Emperors took up this race in 1964 in memory of JFK and the NET (Neumann Einstein Turing). eg Charles friended Emperor family on green issues (& royal pastime tennis!) and got Akio Morita Sony to be first inward investor in Europe. The Queens English has through Smithian editors since birth of Economist 1843 tried to reverse ruling the waves of slavemakers albeit not fast enough for all Asian sustainability yet.. King Charles AI world series needs to be about UPKLM not Artificial Gen Intel.  Where UP = United Peoples 8 billion good intelligences. Kings Language Mapping = data sovereignty locally of language culture geonomic & human diversity, stories parents tell not what commercial media spins. I am sure each of you can describe this race better than me ...

from radio davos /sept 2023 - world economic forum

  • Semiconductors are the lifeblood of economic growth and innovation in fields like artificial intelligence.
  • But the global industry has been shaped in ways that expose it to geopolitical risk.
  • Chris Miller, the author of ‘Chip War,’ spoke with the World Economic Forum’s Radio Davos podcast about the industry’s past and possible future.
  • Subscribe to Radio Davos on any podcast app: https://pod.link/1504682164; or visit wef.ch/podcasts.

The Netherlands has been an innovation engine for centuries, giving us the world’s first multinational corporation, telescope, and cassette tape. Now, it’s an essential link in a backbone of innovative silicon keeping the global economy upright.

The mixture of happenstance and geostrategy that helped make this small European country key to the global semiconductor market is depicted in delicious detail in Chris Miller’s “Chip War.” The book, published last fall, couldn’t have been better timed.

Miller, an associate professor of international history at the Fletcher School, uses a colorful cast of characters to tell the story of a truly pivotal industry’s formation, and explain why altering it in a meaningful way seems unlikely any time soon – regardless of mounting geopolitical pressure.

Chips are coveted not least for the role they play in artificial intelligence tools seemingly poised to shake things up for just about everyone. The more we want them, though, the more expensive and difficult they are to make. It’s all gotten very complicated.

Take the Dutch niche in the supply chain, for example – it’s based on one company's machine “that took tens of billions of dollars and several decades to develop,” Miller writes, and uses light to print patterns on silicon by deploying lasers that can hit 50 million tin drops per second.

It’s an industry full of such mind-bending extremes.

In an interview with the Forum’s Radio Davos podcast, Miller marvelled at having recently visited a facility in the US being built with “seventh-biggest crane that exists in the world,” which will eventually assemble chips mounted with transistors “roughly the size of a coronavirus.”

The places we get our chips from, decade to decade.

Nvidia, the company now most closely identified with chips powering artificial intelligence, features prominently in Miller’s book. The company traces its roots to a meeting at a 24-hour diner on the fringes of Silicon Valley, he writes. At a certain point it realized that its semiconductors used for video-game graphics could do a good job of training AI systems. Earlier this year, its market value increased by $184 billion in a single day.

Nvidia’s chips aren’t made anywhere near Silicon Valley, though. Like most advanced semiconductors they’re produced by another company, TSMC, at a facility in Taiwan, China that Miller describes as “most expensive factory in the world.”

In fact, US chip production in general has declined sharply in recent decades.

Instead, the country has focused on research and design, while relying on links with East Asia and the Netherlands for other elements. But those links risk becoming “choke points,” as Miller describes them, if they’re disrupted by conflict or a natural disaster (it’s not just the plot of a 1980s James Bond film; Miller noted in his Radio Davos interview that an unsettling amount of the industry is located in places relatively prone to earthquakes).

These hazards, and global competition that’s formed harder edges of late, have fueled efforts to build chip resilience through greater independence.

The ongoing race to gain an edge in chips

That massive crane Miller mentioned is being put to work in the state of Arizona, which may be a key part of a current US government effort to “win the race for the 21st century” through semiconductor manufacturing.

The EU has its own initiative designed to strengthen chip competitiveness and resilience.

And a proposed, $20 billion effort to build India’s first semiconductor factory (or “fab,” in industry lingo) recently fell through when a key partner backed out.

In his Radio Davos interview, Miller said the daunting size of the previously planned investment in India is about standard for any new, fully-fledged manufacturing facility. Critics of what the US spends on its military might like to know that “making semiconductors is so expensive that even the Pentagon can’t afford to do it in-house,” he writes.

Sharing the considerable financial burden of making chips was long ago deemed necessary. Research in one country, building elaborate lithography tools in another, manufacturing in another, and finally assembling in yet another. The system works in good times; in less-good times it seems problematic.

The shape of the industry was no accident, though.

“Microelectronics is a mechanical brain,” Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev pronounced in the depths of the Cold War, according to Miller’s book, “It is our future.” Khrushchev was right, but maybe not exactly in the way he would have liked.

At that time, the US was only about four years ahead of the Soviets in chip technology, as the industry’s earliest companies like Fairchild Semiconductor and Texas Instruments focused on space exploration and nuclear weapons.

Once those firms tapped into the vast American consumer market via electronics, the rest was history, Miller writes. An arms race with nuclear warheads was one thing, a race to cram millions of transistors onto a single chip was another. The Soviets fell behind, and Asia came to the fore.

Fairchild began sending its chips to Hong Kong SAR for assembly in the early 1960s. A couple of decades after that, a one-time English literature student named Morris Chang founded TSMC in Taiwan, China. The company now churns out roughly 90% of the world’s advanced chips, and has recently been filing a sizeable portion of global semiconductor patent applications.

Having the right chips or not can make a big difference in a technology market, or on a battlefield.

But, as Miller notes, going it alone in such an expensive and complex industry has never worked. It’s unclear whether forming distinct, competing supply chains would be much better.

One of the most compelling points Miller makes is that among the many things about chips we take for granted, the biggest might be the mind-blowing increases in computing power they give us year after year.

But there’s no guarantee that will continue. Moore's Law, which long ago posited that the power crammed onto a single chip would double about every two years, has so far proven resilient. But it isn’t really a law – it’s just an educated guess.

More reading on chips and global competition

For more context, here are links to further reading from the World Economic Forum's Strategic Intelligence platform:

  • Making chips is “an almost incomprehensibly precise, difficult and expensive business,” according to this piece. That means greater collaboration will be essential. (Scientific American)
  • “There were challenging gaps we were not able to smoothly overcome.” This piece reports on what would’ve been India’s first big-ticket semiconductor fab. (The Diplomat)
  • The fact that governments are spending bigger amounts to subsidize domestic chip industries promises unpredictable global consequences, according to this analysis. (Lowy Institute)
  • Morris Chang and the “silicon shield” – this piece digs into the geopolitical fault line running through the “most indispensable” economy in the world (naturally, it draws on Chris Miller’s book). (The Conversation)
  • “The US has pursued its semiconductor strategy without leveraging its greatest strength: its allies.” This piece argues that the country should appoint a special envoy for chips. (The Diplomat)
  • An alternative to silicon for powering the 7G networks of the future? Transistors eventually won’t be able to get any smaller, so this research delves into ways of using new types of materials to make them smarter instead. (Science Daily)
  • Semiconductor export controls may be a precursor to what’s yet to come with quantum computing, which according to this piece is the next emerging technology stirring fears of weaponization. (Harvard Kennedy School)

Prime Minister of the United Kingdom   leader. Candidate for Richmond and Northallerton (I am no longer an MP).

, marking a world-first on the opening day of the AI Seoul Summit (Tuesday 21 May).

As two days of talks get underway, Zhipu.ai (China) and the Technology Innovation Institute (UAE) are among companies that have signed up to the fresh ‘Frontier AI Safety Commitments’: 

  • Amazon 
  • Anthropic 
  • Cohere 
  • Google / Google DeepMind 
  • G42 
  • IBM 
  • Inflection AI 
  • Meta 
  • Microsoft 
  • Mistral AI 
  • Naver 
  • OpenAI 
  • Samsung Electronics 
  • Technology Innovation Institute 
  • xAI 
  • Zhipu.ai

Where they have not done so already, AI tech companies will each publish safety frameworks on how they will measure risks of their frontier AI models, such as examining the risk of misuse of technology by bad actors.  

The frameworks will also outline when severe risks, unless adequately mitigated, would be “deemed intolerable” and what companies will do to ensure thresholds are not surpassed.  

In the most extreme circumstances, the companies have also committed to “not develop or deploy a model or system at all” if mitigations cannot keep risks below the thresholds. 

On defining these thresholds, companies will take input from trusted actors including home governments as appropriate, before being released ahead of the AI Action Summit in France in early 2025. 

The 16 companies who have agreed to these commitments represent the most significant AI technology companies around the world, including representation from the US and China, the world’s two biggest AI powers.

Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, said: 

It’s a world first to have so many leading AI companies from so many different parts of the globe all agreeing to the same commitments on AI safety.  

These commitments ensure the world’s leading AI companies will provide transparency and accountability on their plans to develop safe AI

It sets a precedent for global standards on AI safety that will unlock the benefits of this transformative technology. 

The UK’s Bletchley summit was a great success and together with the Republic of Korea we are continuing that success by delivering concrete progress at the AI Seoul Summit.

Technology Secretary Michelle Donelan said: 

The true potential of AI will only be unleashed if we’re able to grip the risks. It is on all of us to make sure AI is developed safely and today’s agreement means we now have bolstered commitments from AI companies and better representation across the globe. 

The UK is a world leader when it comes to AI safety, and I am continuing to galvanise other nations as we place it firmly on the global agenda and capitalise on the Bletchley Effect.  

With more powerful AI models coming online, and more safety testing set to happen around the world, we are leading the charge to manage AI risks so we can seize its transformative potential for economic growth.

Republic of Korea Minister Lee said: 

Ensuring AI safety is crucial for sustaining recent remarkable advancements in AI technology, including generative AI, and for maximizing AI opportunities and benefits, but this cannot be achieved by the efforts of a single country or company alone.

In this regard, we warmly welcome the ‘Frontier AI Safety Commitments’ established by global AI companies in collaboration with the governments of the Republic of Korea and the UK during the ‘AI Seoul Summit’, and we expect companies to implement effective safety measures throughout the entire AI lifecycle of design, development, deployment and use.

We are confident that the ‘Frontier AI Safety Commitments’ will establish itself as a best practice in the global AI industry ecosystem, and we hope that companies will continue dialogues with governments, academia, and civil society, and build cooperative networks with the ‘AI Safety Institute’ in the future.

These commitments build on the groundbreaking agreements made with leading AI tech companies at Bletchley Park during the first AI Safety Summit six months ago, as well as other existing commitments such as the US Voluntary Commitments and the Hiroshima Code of Conduct.

Tino Cuellar, President of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace said: 

As the world continues to wrestle with opportunities and risks from frontier AI models, governments, private actors, and civil society all have key roles to play and must find productive ways to work together. Efforts like the safety commitments announced at the Seoul Summit will play a central role in strengthening effective governance and helping countries strike a sensible balance between innovation and safety.

Tom Lue, General Counsel and Head of Governance, Google DeepMind said:  

These commitments will help establish important best practices on frontier AI safety among leading developers. The agreement demonstrates the value of focused international Safety Summits, where scientifically-grounded conversations can take place.

Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn and Inflection.AI, said: 

AI is and will make massive improvements to human life and work. But it is also very important to navigate the risks. That’s why these commitments are such a crucial step forward in managing the most severe risks of advanced AI.” 

We applaud the UK and Republic of Korea for ensuring that developers globally implement the state of the art in frontier AI safety. We look forward to discussing our safety framework alongside other companies at the upcoming France AI summit.

Peng Zhang, CEO of Zhipu.ai said: 

Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) holds the promise of transforming numerous aspects of our lives, but with this advanced technology comes the crucial responsibility of ensuring AI safety. As we delve deeper into the realms of AGI, it is imperative that we prioritize the development of robust safety measures to align AI systems with human values and ethical standards, thereby safeguarding our future in an AI-driven world.

Professor Yoshua Bengio, World leading AI researcher, Turing Prize winner, Lead author of the International Scientific Report on the Safety of Advanced AI, said 

I am pleased to see leading AI companies from around the world sign up to the Frontier AI Safety commitments. In particular, I welcome companies’ commitments to halt their models where they present extreme risks until they can make them safe as well as the steps they are taking to boost transparency around their risk management practices.  

This voluntary commitment will obviously have to be accompanied by other regulatory measures, but it nonetheless marks an important step forward in establishing an international governance regime to promote AI safety.

Ben Garfinkel, Director, Centre for the Governance of AI said:  

These commitments represent a crucial and historic step forward for international AI governance. My expectation is that they will speed up the creation of shared standards for responsible AI development, help the public to judge whether individual companies are doing enough for safety, and support informed policy making around the world.

David Zapolsky, Senior Vice President of Global Public Policy and General Counsel, Amazon said: 

Amazon is proud to endorse the Frontier AI Safety Commitments, which in many ways represent the culmination of a multi-year effort to establish global norms for the safe, secure, and trustworthy development and deployment of frontier AI. As the state of the art of AI continues to evolve, we agree that it is important for companies to provide transparency about how they are managing potential risks of frontier models and honoring their global commitments.

Ya-Qin Zhang, Chair Professor and Dean, Institute for AI Industry Research, Tsinghua University 

I strongly welcome the world’s leading AI companies committing to managing the most severe risks posed by frontier models. These commitments by a diverse group of Chinese, American and international firms represent significant step forward on the public transparency of AI risk management and safety processes.

Gillian Hadfield, Schwartz Reisman Chair in Technology and Society at the University of Toronto said: 

While the capabilities of emerging models are rapidly evolving, it is clear that the public and government leaders lack visibility to be able to assess and mitigate the risks posed by frontier AI models. The Frontier AI Safety Commitments represent a significant step towards tangible and effective regulation of AI, demonstrating a joint commitment to best practices in AI safety, increasing public transparency, and offering flexibility to allow for change as the landscape evolves.

Anna Makanju, VP of Global Affairs, OpenAI said: 

The Frontier AI Safety Commitments represent an important step toward promoting broader implementation of safety practices for advanced AI systems, like the Preparedness Framework OpenAI adopted last year.  

The field of AI safety is quickly evolving and we are particularly glad to endorse the commitments’ emphasis on refining approaches alongside the science. We remain committed to collaborating with other research labs, companies, and governments to ensure AI is safe and benefits all of humanity.

Chris Meserole, Executive Director, Frontier Model Forum said:  

The commitments announced today are a significant step forward for frontier AI safety – proactively identifying, assessing and managing risks is essential to the safe development and deployment of the most capable AI systems. We look forward to working with industry, government, and the scientific community to turn the commitments into practice.

Dr. Najwa Aaraj, CEO, Technology Innovation Institute said:  

The age of AI has arrived and the opportunities for society are immense. The power of generative AI and large language models is already transforming industries, but for us to reap the maximum benefit, we must keep trustworthiness and safety at the core of the technology’s development. The Technology Innovation Institute is a firm believer of trust and secure AI, committed to open source its large language models, and I am delighted to join the other global AI players here in Seoul to discuss and outline the roadmap for AI and set the direction for a safe but prosperous future for us all.

Dan Hendrycks, Safety Advisor to xAI said: 

These voluntary commitments establish that the major AI companies around the globe agree on basic safety standards. This helps lay the foundation for concrete domestic regulation.

Professor Yi Zeng, Director of Center for Long-term AI, China, said: 

These commitments should not only be welcomed in principle, but also be supported for actions. Assessing risks across the full lifecycle of AI and setting out risk thresholds for meaningful, effective and sufficient human control are the cores for raising the levels of safety for Frontier AI.  

Experiences for actionable risk assessment need to be shared broadly so that mistakes do not repeat again and again across different institutes, companies, and countries. Thresholds need to be interoperable so that we are weaving a web of safe AIs, ensuring the safety not only for the self, but also for others, and for all of humankind.

Brad Smith, Vice Chair and President, Microsoft said: 

In 2016, Microsoft began the work to implement a principled and human-centered approach to advancing AI systems in a safe, secure, and trustworthy manner. The Frontier AI Safety Commitments are an important acknowledgement of how safety frameworks must help to address risks that may emerge at the frontier of AI development, especially as their capabilities advance. The tech industry must continue to adapt policies and practices, as well as frameworks, to keep pace with science and societal expectations.

Christina Montgomery, Chief Privacy and Trust Officer, IBM: 

IBM believes that effective regulation coupled with corporate accountability will allow businesses and society at large to reap the benefits of AI. As such we are proud to continue our international engagement and our commitment to safe and responsible development of these technologies via the AI Seoul Summit.

Brian Tse, Founder and CEO, Concordia AI, Beijing-based social enterprise focused on AI safety and governance, said: 

The Frontier AI Safety Commitments represent a crucial step forward in the risk management of advanced AI models. Building on the foundation laid by the Bletchley Declaration, the Commitments hold frontier AI developers accountable for the risks posed by their most powerful systems. I look forward to working with AI developers, governments, third-party evaluators, and other stakeholders to ensure the highest standards of AI safety are upheld for the benefit of humanity.

Beth Barnes, founder and head of research at METR, globally leading research non-profit for Frontier AI model safety, said: 

We think it’s vital to get international agreement on the “red lines” where AI development would become unacceptably dangerous to public safety without adequate mitigation. We’re excited to see many parties agreeing to set out such red lines in the Frontier AI Safety Commitments. We admire the UK and South Korea’s leadership in establishing these commitments.

Michael Sellitto, Head of Global Affairs at Anthropic said: 

The Frontier AI safety commitments underscore the importance of safe and responsible frontier model development. As a safety-focused organization, we have made it a priority to implement rigorous policies, conduct extensive red teaming, and collaborate with external experts to make sure our models are safe. These commitments are an important step forward in encouraging responsible AI development and deployment.

Nick Clegg, President, Global Affairs at Meta said: 

Ensuring that safety and innovation go hand and hand is more critical than ever as industry makes massive strides in developing AI technology. To that end, since Bletchley last year, we’ve launched our latest state-of-the-art open source model, Llama 3, as well as new open-source safety tooling to ensure developers using our models have what they need to deploy them safely. As we’ve long said, democratizing access to this technology is essential to both advance innovation and deliver value to the most people possible. Ahead of next year’s Summit, we look forward to continued streamlining of international initiatives to ensure a global approach to responsible AI.

Aidan Gomez, Co-founder and CEO of Cohere said:

We are grateful for the UK and Republic of Korea’s leadership developing a framework to address potential risks associated with frontier AI models. Cohere is encouraged that in the months since Bletchley Park, the UK, and the industry generally, have increasingly focused on the most pressing concerns, including mis- and dis- information, data security, bias and keeping humans in the loop. It is essential that we continue to consider all possible risks, while prioritizing our efforts on those most likely to create problems if not properly addressed.

Kiril Evtimov, Group CTO, G42, said:

G42 is proud to join this coalition of companies dedicated to advancing AI safely and responsibly. By committing to rigorous safety frameworks and transparent governance, we are not only safeguarding our technological advancements but also paving the way for a future where AI benefits all of humanity. This agreement underscores our collective responsibility and the power of international collaboration in shaping the ethical development of AI.

I live in dc region where bloomberg through johns hopkins is investing both in mayors and ai (iuth hopkins cuda centre of excellence ) I am hopeful that a nvidia mayors cub may be a next step Bloomberg Philanthropies names 23 new mayors to data alliance

Bloomberg Philanthropies named 23 new mayors who’ve joined the group’s City Data Alliance, which encourages cities to integrate data science into policymaking.

BY

COLIN WOOD

JUNE 27, 2024

Bloomberg Philanthropies on Thursday announced the names of 23 mayors in the United States and from around the globe who’ve joined the group’s City Data Alliance.

The alliance follows in the tradition of Bloomberg’s funding of city government projects that aim to drive greater use of data in municipal governance, also known as “data-driven decision making.”

Alliance members get access to operational and technical coaching on how to use data science and artificial intelligence technologies to improve city services and develop new data-driven policies. According to a news release, mayors will attend a two day summit starting Thursday, in which they can meet with urban policy experts from John Hopkins University and Harvard University.

“Together, they will lay the groundwork to build a data infrastructure that allows their municipalities to lead with evidence to improve people’s lives,” the release reads.

Ten U.S. mayors are among the new participants, including the mayors of San Jose, California; Tampa, Florida; and Green Bay, Wisconsin. Also included are mayors from cities in the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Canada, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Guatemala and Peru.

The Bloomberg Philanthropies City Data Alliance began in 2022, funded by a $60 million investment. Past projects have included a data project in Jackson, Mississippi, that aims to address root causes of crime and homelessness, and a website that helps people find affordable housing in Chattanooga, Tennessee, among many others.

The group, which added 20 new cities last year, now counts mayors in 65 cities among its ranks.

“As artificial intelligence rapidly advances, so too does the opportunity for local governments to put it to work for residents’ benefit,” Amy Holmes, executive director of the Bloomberg Center for Government Excellence at Johns Hopkins University, said in the announcement.
