BUILDING
A TRUSTWORTHY
AI FUTURE

Why This Summit?

Dominant media narratives about AI Safety are focused on existential risks and predicted threats from "rogue" Artificial Intelligence. This centering of imagined catastrophes of the future deflects attention and diverts resources away from present-day dangers to our communities and organizations.

The AI safety monoculture stifles our ability for critical thinking, slows down the development of meaningful AI guardrails, and prevents us from building practical solutions. This has led to ethical blind spots, which have eroded the public's trust in these technologies and curbed governments' ability to address critical threats meaningfully.

Grok AI is a prime example of how technology vendors are profiting from AI-enabled digital violence and sexualization of women, young girls, and even children but it is not only the most vulnerable in our communities who are at risk. Reckless development and deployment of these powerful technologies also pose a serious threat to large organizations and governments around the world.

Join WAIE+ for our 2-day virtual AI Safety & Security summit on June 15 & 16, 2026, where we will bring together experts from private, public, civil society, industry, and government sectors to discuss concrete solutions to address these urgent risks and threats. We look forward to welcoming you to this global movement for an inclusive and trustworthy AI future built on a solid foundation of safety, security, and shared prosperity.
