· Technical Collaboration

The international scientific community must work together to address the technological and social challenges posed by advanced AI systems. We encourage building a stronger global technical network to accelerate AI safety R&D and collaborations through visiting researcher programs and organizing in depth AI safety conferences and workshops. Additional funding will be required to support the growth of this field: we call for AI developers and government funders to invest at least one third of their AI R&D budget in safety.

· 3.2 Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Education

Current and future workers need to be prepared with the necessary education and training to help them succeed. We recognize that delivering training is critical and will require significant investment, not only in STEM education, but also in understanding human behavior via the humanities and social sciences. To ensure employability of the workforce of the future, the public and private sectors should work together to design and deliver work based learning and training systems, and advance approaches that provide students with real work experiences and concrete skills. In conjunction, prioritizing diversity and inclusion in STEM fields, and in the AI community specifically, will be a key part in ensuring AI develops in the most robust way possible.

· Awareness and literacy

44. Public awareness and understanding of AI technologies and the value of data should be promoted through open and accessible education, civic engagement, digital skills and AI ethics training, media and information literacy and training led jointly by governments, intergovernmental organizations, civil society, academia, the media, community leaders and the private sector, and considering the existing linguistic, social and cultural diversity, to ensure effective public participation so that all members of society can take informed decisions about their use of AI systems and be protected from undue influence. 45. Learning about the impact of AI systems should include learning about, through and for human rights and fundamental freedoms, meaning that the approach and understanding of AI systems should be grounded by their impact on human rights and access to rights, as well as on the environment and ecosystems.

8. Prepare children for present and future developments in AI

Develop and update formal and informal education programmes globally to include technical and soft skills needed to flourish in an AI world, including in the future workplace. Consider a national self assessment for teachers to assess and then develop their AI awareness and skills. Leverage the use of AI systems in education, when it is appropriate. Facilitate and encourage collaboration between businesses and educational institutions. Develop and promote awareness campaigns for parents, caregivers and society as a whole.
