After three successful trilateral AI symposia in 2018, 2020, and 2022, this year’s conference “Generative AI: Pathways to Democratization, Transparency and Sustainability”, organised by the DWIH Tokyo, the French Embassy, and the AI Japan R&D Network, concluded on 12-13 November in Akasaka, Tokyo. Over two days, the event brought together leading experts from Germany, France and Japan to explore various aspects of GenAI. 

Three keynote sessions introduced the current challenges and solutions related to democratization, transparency, and sustainability, followed by parallel workshops that strengthened an interdisciplinary perspective on GenAI machine learning, robotics, language processing and many other fields. Ethical considerations were another major theme, with participants exploring the challenges of bias, data privacy, and the societal impacts of AI technologies. The conference emphasized the importance of applying GenAI responsibly to benefit all sectors of society.

A dedicated poster session and roundtable discussions provided ample opportunity to all participants to explore the different fields of GenAI application such as industry, healthcare, policymaking and more, and emphasized both the importance and the need for international cooperation to define best practices across borders. 

Governance and regulation played a pivotal role in the discussions, emphasizing the need for international cooperation to establish standards and frameworks that ensure the responsible development and deployment of AI technologies. The Trilateral AI Conference 2024 reaffirmed the importance of global dialogue in the field of AI, paving the way for future collaboration and innovation in this rapidly evolving domain.
