AI is changing everything - Claire shares lessons from global leaders

In this episode of the podcast Claire shares insights from three recent events she's attended:

1. GITEX Global where she learned about: the Canadian government's approach to "sovereignty not solitude" in an era of AI, and Canada's LLM (Cohere), the new Open University of Kenya, Estonia's successful digital economy, the UAE's LLM (Falcon), the Abu Dhabi government's TAMM app, G42's Global AI Institute with Microsoft, Abu Dhabi's Technology Innovation Institute, and the UAE's Mohamed bin Zayed University of AI (and here's the IMF's ratings of countries by GDP per capita)
2. National Summit on AI and the Future of Australian Education - if you're not familiar with the Australian Framework for Generative AI in Schools it's making a big difference in the schools sector
3. Digital Education Council's Global Summit - the chart that DEC CEO Alessandro Di Lullo shared "the scariest chart in the world" from Derek Thompson writer at The Atlantic (using data from the US Federal Reserve), DEC's Ten Dimension AI Readiness Framework. Danny Bielik spoke with Claire in Episode 117 of the podcast and Prof. Himanshu Rai joined Claire in Episode 122 

And details of The Economist's upcoming AI Innovation Asia summit.
