John Hoffman, CEO of the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA), has been awarded the World Internet Conference Distinguished Contribution Award for his outstanding contributions to the global internet sector.

While AI is already a familiar concept worldwide, the discussion around the ethical use of AI is relatively recent. Hoffman emphasized that this year's WIC Wuzhen Summit is perfectly timed and located, focusing on the right topic. The summit provides an excellent platform for industry leaders from diverse backgrounds to exchange insights on how to harness AI for the greater good of humanity, he said.
