Artificial Intelligence

Understanding the challenges and opportunities of artificial intelligence for our societies.

Artificial intelligence is an amazing technological opportunity that can serve the public interest and be used to meet some of society’s challenges in areas such as health, the environment and education. However, like all emerging technologies, it also gives rise to a number of questions, particularly regarding ethical aspects. The King Baudouin Foundation is involved in discussions regarding the conception, responsible use and governance of artificial intelligence.

Our activities

  • we have created a coalition of foundations to support research into the implications of artificial intelligence in terms of its governance, regulations and ethics
  • and we are improving the European civic space in which numerous stakeholders can be brought together to discuss issues raised by AI and to ensure that actors of civil society have a stronger voice in the debate.

Artificial Intelligence is part of the programme Europe
