The AI Initiative at Harvard aims to engage stakeholders in shaping global policy to address the challenges posed by the rapid development of artificial intelligence. While advancements in AI offer significant opportunities, they also present serious socio-political risks that could disrupt social contracts and impact personal identity and agency. Immediate and future actions are needed to navigate these complex implications of AI on various sectors.

2.  The AI Initiative endeavors to engage all
relevant stakeholders to help shape the global
policy framework needed to address the
challenges of the ongoing race for the
development and control of Artificial
Intelligence.

4. 
Improvements and convergences in machine
learning and neurosciences combined with the
availability of massive datasets and the
ubiquity of high-performance scalable
computing are propelling us into a new age
of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

5.  The promise these developments hold is
immense; so too are the risks.

7.  These challenges require both immediate and
future action. Computing systems are already
outperforming humans in many tasks that
profoundly shape our everyday lives in the
fields of transportation, communication,
energy, finance, healthcare as well as defense
and security.

9.  There are clear upsides and opportunities, but
the unintended socio-political consequences
are serious, disrupting the fabric of our social
contracts, sense of human identity, dignity, and
considerations of agency and personal
empowerment.
