It was also emphasized the importance of ensuring the participation of social innovators from around the world with instruments, knowledge, and data necessary for the implementation of sustainable changes.

At the conference, it was highlighted that, like the industrial revolution of the past, the revolution triggered by the development of artificial intelligence creates two categories - winners and losers. Speaking generally, the speech addresses the need for a broad collective response to the challenges arising from such innovations.
