00:00Dear President De Castro, dear President Orsini, dear friends, I am very sorry I could not be with you today.
00:05but I wanted to send you my greetings on the occasion of this first edition of the Varignana Idea Forum.
00:12Artificial intelligence has now forcefully entered our lives and is destined to revolutionize everything
00:16starting from production and industrial processes. It's an epochal challenge that companies are also embracing.
00:22as their dynamism demonstrates. The adoption of this technology is progressively growing
00:27in our economic fabric but I think that there is an enormous potential to be unleashed, that there are margins
00:32to be able to do more. Let's think about the extraordinary opportunities that can arise from the meeting between
00:38artificial intelligence and the knowledge of our manufacturing, the quality of Made in Italy, the ingenuity
00:43of our territories. We have skills and talents to put into play, we must know how to cultivate and create them.
00:48the conditions for them to translate into research, investment, and business. But it is an ambition that must
00:54start from the bottom and involve first of all small and medium enterprises because the value of
00:59An idea doesn't depend on the size of the company in which it is born. Accessible tools are needed,
01:05widespread skills, an increasingly stronger link between universities and production. We also want a
01:09small business can use artificial intelligence to enhance what makes it
01:13unique, to work better, improve productivity, be increasingly competitive. We have
01:18the opportunity to build an Italian path to artificial intelligence, an AI that arises from
01:23manufacturing and work with people not in their place, which makes our companies more competitive,
01:28more qualified our work, which never loses sight of man and defends his dignity and
01:33his professionalism. Because, as Pope Leo reminded us, in the age of artificial intelligence
01:38and robotics cannot rely solely on the invisible hand of the market. Politics has the
01:43task of safeguarding man, defending the common good, ensuring that the benefits of innovation
01:47are shared. Our history tells us that Italian genius is capable of bringing out the best
01:53from the tools he has at his disposal with uses and applications that no one else had
01:58hypothesized. Today with artificial intelligence we have an extraordinary new opportunity and
02:02we must not be afraid to seize it and exploit it to the fullest to bring about this transformation
02:08our identity and demonstrate once again what Italy is capable of. So thank you for the
02:14creativity, courage, and passion that you put into this challenge, and good luck to everyone.
