We are incredibly proud to have hosted the inaugural SaferAI for Children Summit today at KPMG. This gathering marks ICMEC Australia’s first event dedicated to exploring the complex role Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays in both harming and protecting children.
A heartfelt thank you to all the attendees, speakers, and partners who contributed to making this event a resounding success and special thanks to KPMG Australia, our event sponsor.
This ground-breaking Summit brought together leaders from government, law enforcement, the AI/tech industries, academia, and not-for-profit organisations to address the urgent issue of AI misuse in child sexual exploitation while also exploring AI's potential as a powerful tool for child protection.
Throughout the day, we were engaged in insightful discussions about the evolving role of Generative AI and its significant implications for child protection.
ICMEC Australia’s Head of Capacity and Prevention, Dannielle Kelly said the engagement from industry was particularly beneficial, “We are particularly thankful to those who pointed out both the potential risks of AI misuse and the innovative ways it can be helpful. These discussions were so motivating, highlighting the urgent need for cross-sector collaboration in our efforts to safeguard children.”
It was an honour to host today’s SaferAI for Children Summit, which provided a platform for vital conversations. We look forward to the real-world impact that will emerge from these discussions.
