Join Trisha Ray for a conversation on sovereign AI, hosted by the Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Ethics (CAIDE).
Sovereignty as a norm is continually challenged, reshaped, and reinterpreted, contrary to beliefs about a post-Westphalian consensus. In the context of the recent artificial intelligence boom, sovereignty has taken on new modes and methods. While sovereign AI has gained a foothold in several capitals around the world, the goals outlined by governments are varied and wide-reaching, begging the question: what is sovereign AI?
