Operation HOPE Reveals 2026 Global Forums Theme: Capitalism, Tech, and AI in a Human-Centric World

Operation HOPE has announced the theme for its 12th annual HOPE Global Forums in 2026: 'Capitalism, Tech, and AI in a Human-Centric World.' The event, scheduled for December 2-3 at Signia by Hilton Atlanta, will gather leaders from various sectors including business, government, technology, faith, and community. The central focus of the forums will be to address how the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence and technology can be leveraged to expand opportunities for all individuals, rather than just a select few. This theme builds upon the momentum of the 2025 forums, which saw over 5,000 delegates from more than 30 countries and the release of the 2025 AI Ethics Council Annual Report. The AI Ethics Council, co-founded by Operation HOPE Founder, Chairman, and CEO John Hope Bryant and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, continues to advocate for equitable representation in the development and deployment of AI.

Facebook Whistleblower Frances Haugen Urges AI Firms to Uphold White House Safety Pact's Spirit

Facebook Whistleblower Frances Haugen Urges AI Firms to Uphold White House Safety Pact's Spirit

Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen has called on artificial intelligence (AI) companies to adhere to the spirit of their self-regulation agreement with the White House. Her remarks came days after Meta Platforms Inc. CEO Mark Zuckerberg and other executives signed the pact. In an interview on Friday, Haugen emphasized that companies must 'step up and comply,' noting that tech firms often follow only the exact written text of agreements, potentially exploiting loopholes in 'very flexible systems.' She expressed doubt that AI firms would uphold the 'spirit of the rules,' suggesting they might 'go around the end of the fence' by doing what is not explicitly prohibited. Haugen did, however, praise Anthropic and its CEO Dario Amodei for advocating for independent auditors, indicating a more proactive approach to safety concerns within some AI companies.
