Summit in Jordan: Young International Leaders Discussed How to Preserve Human Values in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
The International youth debate “Artificial Intelligence: Between Opportunities and Challenges” was held on November 11, 2026, in Amman (Jordan) within the framework of the First World Public Summit: Arab World “Dialogue, Cultural Heritage and Partnership for a Shared Future”. The event was organized by the World Peoples Assembly and the Arab Peace Group with the support of partners from Jordan, Russia and other countries.
Young leaders and representatives of relevant organizations gathered to discuss one of the most pressing issues of our time - the impact of artificial intelligence on the future of the new generation. The moderator of the meeting was the Malaysian activist, entrepreneur, expert in communications and human rights, founder of the Fearless Foundation project, Nurul Ashikin.
The debate was held in a lively and dynamic format of constructive dispute: participants split into two teams, each of which argued its position.
Supporters of technological progress presented AI as a powerful development tool opening up broad opportunities in education, professional fulfillment and creativity. Their opponents focused on potential risks, including the transformation of the labor market, the threat of digital inequality and society’s growing dependence on algorithms.
The focus was on issues affecting everyone: whether AI can fully replace humans in the professional sphere, how technology affects the development of critical thinking, and how to maintain a balance between technological progress and human values.
The debate became an effective platform for open exchange of opinions and strengthening international youth dialogue. Participants not only examined the phenomenon of artificial intelligence from different perspectives but also confirmed the new generation’s readiness to take responsibility for ensuring that technology serves humanity’s benefit rather than replacing humanistic ideals.
