At the G7 summit, world leaders called for international standards for rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI). The world's largest economies have acknowledged that while AI has become more prevalent, international rules governing their use and compliance have "not necessarily kept pace". However, no significant conclusions were reached on how to handle the emerging technology. In their joint statement, the leaders said the challenges of new technologies such as AI must be considered alongside the benefits, adding they should be governed in line with democratic values. G7 members also called for technical standards to develop "trustworthy" AI.
