Speakers noted that although there are not many formal international mechanisms for ensuring rules for the ethical application of AI and norms for standardization, researchers and firms are engaging in international collaborations in authoring papers and patent applications as well as forming research alliances. A globally diffuse and connected community of AI researchers work together, and there is an ethos of openness among this global community.
