Governing Intelligence Human Judgement and the Future of Knowledge

A conversation designed for the questions that matter. There are many conferences about education. There are many conferences about artificial intelligence. The Global Education Forum was created for something different. Not to discuss the latest technologies. Not to predict the future.

But to explore one question that will shape every educational institution in the years ahead:

What must remain under meaningful human judgement and responsibility?

GEF brings together leaders from education, government, research, technology, business and philanthropy because no single sector can answer that question alone.
