Russian president: Future lies in sovereign worldview
Tehran - BORNA - Open and creative discussions on the future of humanity help governments to adequately respond to emerging challenges, the Russian president said. “Conclusions and results of such a profound and substantive conversation are of great value,” Putin added. “I am confident that we must create our own future based on a sovereign worldview.”
Organized at the Russian president’s initiative, the symposium includes about 50 events, divided into three tracks: society, technology, and global cooperation. The forum will feature more than 200 speakers from Russia, China, the US, and Italy, as well as countries in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. They will discuss a wide range of topics from demographic challenges to artificial intelligence (AI) and space exploration.
The first day of the symposium involved a panel discussion on the future of the AI technologies and their potential to become not just a narrow professional tool but a basis for global infrastructure and a new “language of reality” for both governments and private companies.
Another panel discussion on Tuesday focused on the prospects of cooperation between Russia and Africa in the coming decades up to 2063. Moscow is interested in strengthening its ties with the continent. It is actively seeking to engage in technology sharing with African nations, as well as contribute to ensuring security on the continent and supporting the sovereignty of regional actors and a more just approach in international relations.
