Paris is set to become the epicenter of the global artificial intelligence conversation next week as world leaders, tech giants, and scientists gather for the AI Action Summit. Running from February 6 to 11, this week-long event aims to balance AI innovation, ethical development, and international cooperation.

Europe also spies an opportunity to make a new bid for the AI crown. One of French President Emmanuel Macron's officials described the summit to journalists as a "wake up call" for France and Europe, adding that the bloc must not let the AI revolution "pass it by".

Scientists will discuss the impact of artificial intelligence on health and sustainability, among other areas, during a two-day meeting ahead of the Artificial Intelligence Action Summit this weekend.
