History of Creation: Bridging AI and Humanity

The "Bridges Between Worlds" forum was born from a critical question: Can artificial intelligence truly understand humanity’s core values, emotions, and social dynamics? As AI becomes increasingly autonomous and influential, it’s essential to explore whether it can authentically resonate with human empathy, justice, and compassion — or if its perspective on humanity remains fragmented. The forum seeks to address whether AI could evolve into a friend and ally to human welfare or, through misunderstanding, pose unforeseen risks.

The forum was launched in 2024 by the World Charity Alliance "Peacemaker" with a profound vision: to create a platform where leaders in AI, ethics, and humanitarianism converge to explore this vital question. Beyond technical advancement, the aim is to investigate AI’s potential as a partner in understanding and co-evolving with humanity, applying its strengths to global challenges like healthcare, environmental protection, and education without compromising human values.

Why BRICS? Why Moscow?

The decision to hold the inaugural forum in Moscow, under the leadership of the BRICS nations, underscores a commitment to diverse perspectives in the AI conversation. While Western companies like Google, OpenAI, and DeepMind have dominated AI development, there is immense potential within the often-overlooked contributions of countries like Russia, China, and India. These nations provide innovative approaches rooted in distinct cultural, social, and ethical contexts, which can broaden the AI narrative and deepen our understanding of AI’s role in society.

As Russia leads BRICS in 2024, Moscow stands as a bridge between these emerging viewpoints and the global discourse on AI. By hosting the first forum here, "Bridges Between Worlds" underscores the necessity of a truly international dialogue, inviting attendees to engage with underrepresented voices and insights.

A Quest for Mutual Understanding

The name, "Bridges Between Worlds," reflects the forum's mission to foster dialogue not only between nations and cultures but between human intelligence and AI. This bridge is essential to assess AI’s capability to authentically understand and value human experiences. By bringing together thinkers from the fields of technology, culture, and humanitarian work, the forum aims to evaluate how AI might serve humanity in the future while ensuring that humanistic values remain central.

A Platform for Inquiry and Innovation

At the heart of the forum is a question of profound importance: Can artificial intelligence truly comprehend and resonate with the intricacies of human experience, or will its interpretation remain inherently limited? The "Bridges Between Worlds" forum fosters this exploration by attracting world leaders, technology experts, artists, and cultural icons to deliberate on how AI might co-create a better world with humanity. The next major forum, planned for the Kingdom of Bahrain, will expand this inquiry, inviting voices from diverse regions to contribute to the evolving understanding of AI’s place in our future.

This forum champions the principle that technology, including AI, should be a partner in fostering humanity’s welfare, not a replacement for it. While acknowledging AI’s potential to address global issues like poverty, climate change, and access to education, the forum underscores that these advancements should be ethically grounded in compassion, justice, and equity.

The "Bridges Between Worlds" Forum: A Global Movement

The "Bridges Between Worlds" forum is more than an event; it is a movement that seeks to answer one of the most crucial questions of our time: Will AI become a true partner to humanity or a potential risk? Through each forum, beginning with the inaugural event in Moscow, participants are encouraged to envision an AI future that aligns with human values, creating a bridge to a future where technology not only enhances human capabilities but safeguards the core values that unite us all.
