Former Taiwan digital affairs minister

It is necessary for cross-sector stakeholders to work collaboratively, so the result can be relied upon in total confidence by every member of the family of nations.

AI Verified The quote clearly rejects AI decisions being made unilaterally by a few companies and calls for collaborative input from cross-sector stakeholders and nations. While it speaks about AI governance rather than "value alignment" by name, it clearly implies support for broad public/stakeholder deliberation rather than developers alone deciding. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 3mo ago

AI Verified The quote says AI governance "must not hinge on the unilateral decisions of a few companies" and instead requires "cross-sector stakeholders to work collaboratively," which strongly implies support for broad public/cross-sector deliberation rather than developers or companies deciding alone. The inference is from general AI governance to value-alignment decisions specifically. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 3mo ago

Power to shape a shared vision of AI should not be exclusive to a handful of companies or economies. Collective intelligence processes democratise knowledge and serve as a powerful catalyst for bolstering mutual understanding.
