Is the world moving toward a global agreement on AI governance?
Discussions are underway globally about whether international coordination on AI governance is becoming more likely, with various governments and bodies weighing the possibility of shared frameworks or agreements.
Why this matters: A global AI agreement sounds like a good idea until you ask who writes it. Big governments and big tech companies would have the loudest voices. The people most affected by AI decisions, ordinary users, workers, and people in smaller countries, would have the least. Any framework that gets built at that level will reflect the priorities of whoever is in the room. Watch who is at the table before assuming a global deal means broader protection.
