At least 17 heads of state, the United Nations chief, and several global tech CEOs are set to attend next week’s AI Impact Summit in New Delhi, India.

Touted as the biggest yet, it is the fourth edition of the annual global gathering to address the risks and opportunities posed by the booming artificial intelligence technology.

According to a statement from India’s foreign ministry, leaders from France, Brazil, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, and 13 other nations will join, as well as Google’s Sundar Pichai, Sam Altman of OpenAI, and Nvidia boss Jensen Huang.

The summit “will bring together global leaders, policymakers, innovators, and experts from across the world to deliberate on the way forward for AI”, it said.

Panels and talks are planned from Monday, and on Thursday, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will open the two-day summit with leaders.

Earlier editions of the AI Impact Summit were held in Paris, Seoul, and the British wartime code-breaking hub Bletchley.

The Delhi event will focus on issues like child safety and sustainability.

According to the Foreign Ministry, leaders from Bhutan, Croatia, Finland, Greece, Mauritius, the Netherlands, Serbia, Slovakia, Sri Lanka, and Switzerland are among those who have confirmed they will attend.
