As AI accelerates transformation across industries, unequal access to its tools and benefits risks deepening disparities. Without intentional action, communities across the socioeconomic spectrum could be left out of both the utilization and gains, further exacerbating divides.

Join Axios House in Davos for a reception exploring the stakes of ensuring all people have access to learning, using and benefiting from AI technologies. We’ll hear from policymakers, tech leaders and innovators on closing the AI access gap — and what’s needed to ensure a future of shared prosperity.
