Kairat Torebayev, Kazakhstan’s Permanent Representative to the World Trade Organization, is chairing the World Intellectual Property Organization’s (WIPO) first global forum on intellectual property and artificial intelligence. The forum is taking place in Geneva, Switzerland, on November 9–10.
The discussions bring together ministers, heads of government agencies from WIPO member states, international experts and representatives of technology companies. The agenda includes copyright and patent protection, the use of new technologies in science and innovation, and the protection of a person’s voice, image and digital identity.
For the first time, Kazakh has been included among the 20 languages in the forum’s experimental AI subtitling system. This allows Kazakh specialists to follow the discussions in real time in the state language.
