On Thursday, the World Economic Forum will host visit by the President of Israel and the CEO of ChatGPT firm OpenAI. It’s the third day of the yearly elite gathering at the resort in Switzerland. The situation of the Israeli hostages held by Hamas since its murderous invasion into Israel on October 7 may come back into focus, according to Israeli President Isaac Herzog. The increasing number of deaths in Gaza as Israeli troops spearhead a fierce military operation to disarm armed militants has captured the attention of the entire globe.
A panel discussion during breakfast on the meeting’s fringes on Thursday focused on Ukraine’s conflict with Russia, a prominent topic in Davos this year.
In order to assist Ukraine, Polish President Andrzej Duda demanded the release of embezzled Russian assets held in Western institutions, citing $60 billion set aside by the US for reconstruction efforts in the country and €50 billion set aside by the EU as “crucial.”
British Foreign Secretary David Cameron urged the EU and US to move forward with stalled aid packages and urged Ukraine’s allies to remember that together their economies are 25 times bigger than Russia’s: “All we need to do is make our economic strength show, make it pay, and we will be able to help Ukraine bring this to to a conclusion.”

The four-day Davos conference has covered a wide range of subjects, not the least of which are worries about artificial intelligence and climate change, which present both opportunities and risks for certain people’s ability to pursue their careers.
“Artificial intelligence is now undoubtedly the most important potential contribution for global development,” UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told reporters in Davos on Wednesday, a day when leaders like French President Emmanuel Macron and President Javier Milei of Argentina also showed up.
“This is something that cannot be dealt with business as usual,” he added, saying governments were “to a certain extent, ill-equipped, ill-prepared, to deal with this new reality”.
Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, who survived a contentious executive-suite shake-up towards the end of last year, will participate in a panel discussing how technology could “amplify our humanity” shortly after a debate on whether generative AI is a “boon or bane for creativity.”
