Sharing the Global AI Governance Alliance

Came across this at a conference last week and I haven't seen any post about this on the EA Forum. 

The Global AI Governance Alliance (GAIGA) is an initiative that has arisen from outside of the EA community as far as I can see^[1], and is led by Robert Whitfield, the chair of One World Trust. The Global AI Governance Alliance aims to bring together entities working on AI safety and unify recommendations from fragmented communities, and it seems like there is a lot of experience behind it to do that. So they are an opportunity to engage with more organisations and people working on AI safety outside of EA circles. Also, the alliance is born out of the World Federalists Movement, and so addresses some of the "systemic change" approaches that EA is not famous for. 

From the website:

GAIGANow is dedicated to establishing an effective, equitable, and accountable global governance framework for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other disruptive digital technologies. Rooted in the principles of the World Federalist Movement – Institute for Global Policy (WFM-IGP), we champion multi-stakeholder collaboration, uniting NGOs, governments, academia, and civil society to ensure AI’s safe and inclusive development.

Recognizing the urgency of AI governance, we seek to unify the fragmented global discourse, creating an Alliance of like-minded stakeholders to advocate for structured, responsible, and forward-thinking regulatory mechanisms.
