Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Decoding China's innovation capabilities
Q: How much do you see the potential in there, in early stage cooperation already?
Kutte expects AI to improve drug development, clinical-trial efficiency, diagnostics and healthcare administration, but says drug discovery has advanced less than hoped. He attributes the limitation to gaps in biological knowledge and fragmented, confidential data, while suggesting that combining AI with quantum computing could eventually help address medical and planetary-health challenges.
Decoding China's innovation capabilities
Q: You are suggesting in some of the media reports that have been reading over the years that China is not just a manufacturing hub. Please, it is not anymore, but rather it is where the innovation comes from. What does that mean to you? How do we translate that into your cooperation with China?
Kasim Kutte says China has built a life-sciences innovation ecosystem that is nearing global peers in areas such as contract manufacturing, bioprocessing, tools and diagnostics. Novo Holdings invests in Chinese companies and funds, partners locally, and sees China as an important market whose innovations also shape investment decisions elsewhere.
The importance of global AI governance
Q: How confident are you that today UN can really play that role of convening everybody together on AI?
Mohammed says the UN remains essential for convening on issues no country can solve alone, but it needs to renew its capacities, include younger people, and work more at the country level.
The importance of global AI governance
Q: Artificial intelligence is extremely crucial, but what do you think is the role of the UN in AI governance? What are the priorities?
Guterres says the UN should provide a universal platform for AI governance and describes an independent scientific panel representing people from the Global North and South. He identifies capacity-building in developing countries as a major priority.
Understanding UN reforms
Q: Can efficiency and representativeness be achieved at the same time?
Ryder says they must be. Smaller groups can complement the UN, but universal participation is essential to the legitimacy of international rules and agreements.
