Participants at the AI World Summit discussed Global AI Laws and Governing bodies as a groundbreaking effort to establish ethical frameworks and governance for AI, including "The 10 AI Commandments" on how to use AI for the good of humanity without endangering the human race.

The second phase of this endeavor is envisioned to take place at the Vatican to present the “AI - The 10 Commandments”, to be hosted by Pope Francis with the likes Prof. Yuval Noah Harari and Godfathers of AI, in the iconic Sistine Chapel beneath Michelangelo's God’s Creation of Adam.

In conjunction with The World Forum,  a curated program of associated events took place:

1. The Democracy Gala, March 18, celeberated Guardians of Democracy and included the Noble Prize for “The Peacemaker of the Century” US President Bill Clinton for stopping wars in Bosnia, Kosovo, all of former Yugoslavian Territories, Northern Ireland, and Timor-Leste.

 2. The Social Media Tribunal, March 17 - 21, by The Court of the Citizen of the World. In a landmark trial, The Social Media Tribunal has concluded that social media platforms knowingly and intentionally permit their platforms to be used for hate speech, misinformation, abetting teenage suicide, and, in the case of the Rohingya population in Myanmar, inciting genocide. The Tribunal found that platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), YouTube, and TikTok, as well as governments responsible for regulating social media, have failed to act responsibly, leading to catastrophic consequences.  

3. Special Screening “The Click Trap”, March 16, on The Pioneer ship. "The Click Trap" exposes the alarming truths behind the digital advertising economy, worth hundreds of billions of dollars, showing the far-reaching impact it's having on our lives, both "on" and "offline".
 4. Film Premiere of “The Cranes Call”, March 17, at the French Embassy - with director Laura Warner, investigator Anya Neistat, and executive producers Secretary Hillary Clinton and Jaka Bizilj about the War Crimes investigation of the Clooney Foundation in Ukraine - with the panel discussion after the screening.
