Today, Friday, April 12, 2024, in cooperation between CICT-CIFT, OCCAM, and EWA-BELT, was held under the auspices of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Italian Republic, the Twenty-Third Conference on Poverty Information – at the United Nations in New York.
\nDr. Hossam Badrawy, a professor at the Faculty of Medicine and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Nile Badrawy Foundation for Education and Development, participated in the conference as a keynote speaker in the first conference session, which discussed how a comprehensive approach based on artificial intelligence can be effective in achieving the goals of sustainable development? AI represents both risks and opportunities for human well-being. While it holds promise for societal progress and poverty alleviation, its prevalent use in warfare and surveillance raises concerns. To prevent past disastrous outcomes, AI-based technologies should focus on socially beneficial applications, meeting global societal needs, especially of marginalized communities.
\nDr. Badrawi\u2019s speech was as follows:
\n\u201cLife on Earth is a game of survival. Strength and intelligence once ruled, but adaptability prevails.
\nFrom insects to mammals, adaptation is key. As our world changes, this ability will be more important than ever.
\nEverything in the universe and life operates according to a precise and strict system.
\nAs humans throughout history have understood and deciphered some of the symbols and equations of parts of this system, and gained knowledge and awareness of why things happen, their ability to predict (or extrapolate, to be more precise) future events has improved.
\nThis, in turn, enhanced human ability to control, or at least adapt and deal with, what will happen.
\nThis shift from reactive to proactive has contributed significantly to improving outcomes, human development, and civilizations.
\nUnfortunately, those who know, those who have learned, and those who are prepared will move on faster, leaving the less fortunate behind, presenting an even greater challenge to humanity.
\nOn the other hand, the less fortunate are also more able to adapt to changes.
\nThere is an opportunity here.
\nArtificial Intelligence (AI)
\nThe dual nature of artificial intelligence
\nIndeed, innovation, like a double-edged sword, can cut both ways.
\nThe Internet, once a new technology, faced similar division and controversy in the last century… recounting how skeptics feared its negative effects, while optimists envisioned a world transformed for the better.
\nThe Internet has revolutionized communications, commerce and education, but it has also generated challenges such as cybercrime and echo chambers.
\nThis experience serves as an introduction to the current discourse around AI, as AI today stands at the crossroads between being a force for tremendous good and a potential source of challenges.
\nIt’s not a question of whether AI is inherently good or bad, but how we choose to harness it for the benefit of humanity
\nArtificial Intelligence can be an effectively transformative tool in combating poverty and achieving sustainable development, emphasizing its ability to provide innovative solutions.
\nI am an optimistic person and I see opportunity and a way to exploit it
\nArtificial Intelligence \u2013 the third electronic arm of man
\nAI’s gigantic ability to process massive amounts of data could lead to unprecedented insights and solutions across sectors, from healthcare and education to agriculture and energy.
\n* The power of artificial intelligence lies in its ability to predict future trends and outcomes by analyzing comprehensive historical data. This ability could transform the way we deal with challenges such as climate change, resource allocation, and economic planning, making our efforts more proactive rather than merely reactive.
\n* By analyzing big historical data, AI can provide \u201cadaptability through prediction,\u201d essentially reading the future to anticipate and address challenges before they arise.
\n* By analyzing vast archives, it predicts trends, informs decisions, and adapts strategies.
\n* Imagine predicting factors that lead to poverty, such as climate risks, social unrest, disease outbreaks, improving resource allocation, or predicting crop yields \u2013 all through the predictive lens of AI. AI can certainly play a role in mitigating poverty. Severity of poverty
\nAlso participating in the first session of the conference were:
\n\u2022 President: Patrizio Civelli, Special Advisor to the Director-General of IDLO; Former Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations, Italy
\n\u2022 Daniela Rondinelli, Member of the European Parliament
\n\u2022 Belinda Biscoe, Senior Associate Vice President, University of Oklahoma, USA. Niccol\u00f2 Rinaldi, Head of the Asia, Australia and New Zealand Unit, European Parliament, Italy.
\n\u2022 Remy Sichibeng, Head of Policy, Legislation and Governance Section, UN-Habitat, Kenya

He considered deposed president Mohamed Morsi's decision to bring back the People's Assembly as a reinforcement of the US-supported dictatorship.
