7 Moreover, this Summit will be a week of tangible action. It is time for us to ensure, together, that the public interest is central to the development of artificial intelligence. In Paris, promotion of public interest AI will include the showcasing of 50 innovative projects addressing the sustainable development goals (SDGs). It will also include the launch of a large-scale initiative aimed at making access to artificial intelligence more equal across the world. This Summit will be an opportunity to get to grips with essential issues, including the quality of public and democratic debate and access to information in the generative AI age. Lastly, this Summit is a call to take a long view: firstly, through longer-term initiatives, which we will promote energetically from the Summit onwards; and secondly, the absolute need to conceive the two great transitions of our time the digital and environmental transitions together for the first time on the international stage, to make artificial intelligence a driver of progress, environmental protection and the public interest.
