Today, at the World Economic Forum, we face diverse and profound challenges. Our world is more interconnected yet more divided than ever. We struggle with sluggish economic growth and inclusiveness is in doubt. Climate change poses relentless challenges. Innovation brings opportunities but also risks. These transformative challenges lead to uncertainty and fear. We must rediscover a narrative of trust and stewardship for a better future. Our actions today have consequences for tomorrow. Trust requires collaboration, sustainability, and empathy. As leaders, we have a responsibility to contribute significantly. The World Economic Forum is not just a meeting, but a year-long engagement. Trust is vital for cooperation and functioning institutions. We must rebuild trust by exercising our trusteeship.

The speaker believes dislike of social media is growing, complicating consensus-building in democracies. Traditional arbiters of fact have been undermined, and people self-select news sources, creating a vicious cycle. Curbing social media entities to ensure accountability on facts is difficult due to the First Amendment, especially when sources spread disinformation. Winning the right to govern, and thus implement change, requires winning enough votes. The speaker questions whether democracy can survive unregulated social media, suggesting democracies are struggling to address current challenges effectively. The speaker implies the upcoming election is about breaking the fever in the United States.

Today, the World Economic Forum acknowledges the diverse and profound challenges we face. Our world is more interconnected yet divided than ever before. We struggle with sluggish economic growth and inclusiveness in our societies is in doubt. Climate change poses relentless challenges to our environment, while technological innovation brings both opportunities and risks. These transformative challenges lead to uncertainty and pessimism, forcing us into short-term crisis management instead of long-term sustainable solutions. This undermines our collective trust in the future and risks making us more egocentric on a national and individual level. To break this cycle, we need a paradigm shift and must focus on rebuilding trust.

The speaker believes dislike of social media is growing, exacerbating the problem of building consensus in democracies. Traditional arbiters of fact have been undermined, and people self-select information sources, creating a vicious cycle. Curbing social media entities to ensure accountability on facts is difficult due to the First Amendment, especially when sources spread disinformation. The speaker suggests winning the right to govern through elections to implement change. The speaker questions whether democracy can survive unregulated social media, stating that democracies are deeply challenged and haven't proven capable of addressing current challenges quickly or substantially enough. The speaker believes the election is about breaking the fever in the United States.

Digital platforms are being misused to subvert science and spread disinformation and hate to billions of people. This global threat demands clear and coordinated global action. A policy brief on information integrity on digital platforms puts forward a framework for a concerned international response.

The speaker addresses the Gavi community, stating that we are living in a time of upheaval and popular revolt against established institutions, including medicine, that have lost public trust. The speaker, along with President Trump, is committed to earning that trust back. This will be achieved by preserving what is honest and serves the country and the world, while eliminating what does not.

The global elite trust each other more, allowing for collaboration and innovation. However, the majority of people in every country surveyed have less trust in this elite. Without followers, our leadership cannot lead us to our desired destination.

As leaders, we must address the challenge of disinformation without compromising free speech. Ignoring this issue threatens the values we hold dear. It's difficult to end a war if people believe it's legal and noble. Similarly, addressing climate change becomes challenging if people deny its existence. Upholding human rights is hindered by hateful rhetoric and dangerous ideologies. We face battles on multiple fronts, but there is hope. For every new weapon, there is a tool to overcome it. Despite attempts to create chaos, there is a collective determination to restore order. We have the means, we just need the collective will.

Many feel overwhelmed by disasters and devastation. This year and decade have been painful, with a pandemic and climate change causing widespread suffering. Lies and disinformation are being used to harm many, while democracy and freedom are under attack globally, from Ukraine to the United States.

Many people overlook their options in dealing with misinformation on social media. Early detection is key to tracking and countering harmful narratives. Legal action can be taken against profit-driven disinformation networks. Fact-checking alone may not change beliefs, so building counter narratives is crucial. Our organization helps detect, assess, and mitigate the impact of misinformation to prevent future issues. The recent events at the US Capitol highlight the real-world consequences of online disinformation. Translation: It is important to detect and counter harmful narratives early to prevent misinformation from causing real-world harm. Legal action can be taken against profit-driven disinformation networks, and building counter narratives is essential. Our organization helps organizations address the impact of misinformation to prevent future issues. The recent events at the US Capitol show the consequences of online misinformation.

Disinformation and misinformation are the primary concerns of the Global Risk Report. The Digital Services Act defines the responsibilities of large internet platforms regarding the content they promote, especially concerning children, vulnerable groups, and hate speech. The boundary between online and offline is blurring, necessitating the protection of offline values online. Generative AI is a significant opportunity if used responsibly, but the World Economic Forum Global Risk Report identifies artificial intelligence as one of the top potential risks for the next decade.

We launched an initiative to improve research on how automated processes curate online experiences. Understanding misinformation and disinformation is crucial. Ignoring this problem threatens the values we hold dear. It's important to address the challenge, as it affects ending wars, tackling climate change, and upholding human rights. Those who perpetuate chaos aim to weaken communities and countries. We must prevent these weapons from becoming a part of warfare. Despite facing many battles, there is cause for optimism. For every new weapon, there is a tool to overcome it. We have the means, we just need the collective will.

Disinformation and hate speech have created a toxic environment, forcing the UN to act strategically in its communications. The UN aims to shape debate, educate, and deliver facts about global issues like human suffering, climate change, and war. However, UN content was being down-ranked on platforms, and the organization faced online attacks. Every Sustainable Development Goal is impacted by disinformation and hate speech. To combat this, the UN introduced global principles on information integrity, a blueprint for a healthy information ecosystem. These principles emphasize safety by design and transparency, aligning with calls to elevate information integrity.

Speaker 0 introduces Desiree as an outspoken whistleblower who has challenged the Davos elite, asserts that old systems are not fit for the twenty-first century, and asks how Desiree helped build the WEF’s great reset. Speaker 1, Desiree, recounts that in 2020 she obtained her dream job as chief sustainability officer at Deutsche Bank. She states that while in that role she witnessed fraud and describes the annual report as a “legal living document” filled with lies. She says that a couple of weeks after she spoke out, she was fired, and shortly after, the annual report was released with “all the lies.” She describes a subsequent “horrific smear campaign” and notes that within two days, U.S. authorities contacted her, including the SEC, the FBI, and the Department of Justice. She mentions that they asked her questions, implying inquiry or investigation directed at her claims. Speaker 0 questions whether Desiree is advancing the view that “they’re controlling the world.” Speaker 1 asserts that the WEF is vast and that its tentacles affect every part of life. She claims that this situation is not stakeholder capitalism but socialism, accusing the WEF of lying to the public. She contends that the Davos agenda involves more than net zero and asserts that it is connected to a “climate crisis” manufactured by a “multi trillion dollar industrial complex.” She reiterates that the Davos agenda is about more than climate goals and frames it as a broad, powerful economic and political enterprise. Speaker 0 asks Desiree whether she ever met Claus Schwab and whether she has anything to say about the encounter. Speaker 1 responds with a brief affirmative, saying “Yes,” to having met Schwab, and adds “Truthfully” when asked for further remarks about the meeting. Summary of key points: - Desiree’s career move to Deutsche Bank in 2020 as chief sustainability officer and her claim of discovering fraud and a lies-filled annual report. - Her claim of being fired and subjected to a smear campaign, followed by inquiries from U.S. authorities (SEC, FBI, DOJ). - The assertion that the WEF’s influence extends across life, characterizing the Davos agenda as socialism rather than stakeholder capitalism, and alleging a manufactured climate crisis tied to a multi-trillion-dollar industrial complex. - The claim that the Davos agenda encompasses more than net zero and entails broader power and influence. - Desiree confirms she met Claus Schwab, with a brief, candid acknowledgment.

This week, an initiative was launched with companies and nonprofits to improve research and understanding of how automated processes curate online experiences. This is important for understanding online mis- and disinformation, a challenge that leaders must address. While it's easy to dismiss disinformation, ignoring it poses a threat to valued norms. How can wars end if people believe their reasons are legal and noble? How can climate change be tackled if people don't believe it exists? How are human rights upheld when people are subject to hateful rhetoric? The goals of those who perpetuate disinformation are to cause chaos, reduce the ability to defend, disband communities, and collapse countries' collective strength. There is an opportunity to ensure these weapons of war do not become an established part of warfare. Despite facing many battles, there is cause for optimism because for every new weapon, there is a new tool to overcome it. We have the means; we just need the collective will.

- The speaker found their photo name on the World Economic Forum website under the category “Young Global Leaders,” noting that the list includes people from different political parties worldwide and is described as pushing a super globalist agenda with corporate power among the wealthiest. - It is claimed that even president Putin and others were once “young global leaders,” suggesting the WEF and related networks infiltrate cabinets and governance structures. - The idea is presented that the world oligarchic system holds power in Europe, controlling leaders such as the Bundescanseller (German chancellor) or prime ministers, leading to a perception of a global oligarchy. - The speaker states the Global Shapers community was created as a means to shape the common future, implying an organized effort to influence global policy. - There is a claim that attempts are being made to establish a new world order with rules that supersede and undermine national sovereignty and democracy. - It is argued that UN officials and WEF Davos leaders are in effect the same actors, suggesting the UN is indistinguishable from the World Economic Forum in practice. - The claim is made that these elites claim to know what is best for the people, and that billionaires are driving the agenda, with the danger being that they set the world’s rules and pursue a utopian future while silencing the voices and sovereignty of nations. - A sentiment is expressed that the situation is controlled by the same oligarchic ideas and actors, with the response labeled as “Total. 100%.” - Some participants concede debates about a deglobalizing world, but others argue for reglobalization of the world. - It is asserted that the World Economic Forum creates leaders who are then elected by the public, suggesting a pipeline from WEF to political office. - In the United Nations, there is a description of scrutiny for political correctness; those who are not 100% politically correct cannot participate, and influence can be exerted through salary and offers to control individuals. - There is mention of a global rules-based order aimed at combating dangerous extremist views online and minimizing misinformation, framed within shaping a great reset. - The claim is made that nobody will be safe unless everybody is vaccinated, and that there is a need to confront a deep, systemic, and structural restructuring of the world. - The discussion concludes with the expectation that the world will look different after this transition process.

In response to the global risk report, I want to address the concern of disinformation and misinformation. We have been focusing on this issue since the beginning of my term. Through the Digital Services Act, we have defined the responsibilities of large internet platforms in promoting and spreading content. This includes protecting children and vulnerable groups from hate speech. It is crucial to protect our offline values online, especially in the era of generative AI. The World Economic Forum Global Risk Report also highlights artificial intelligence as a top potential risk for the next decade.

The speaker emphasizes the importance of private companies in combating misinformation online. They express concern over the impact of disinformation on democratic institutions, particularly highlighting the refusal to accept election results. The speaker warns of the global spread of rigged election narratives by autocrats, leading to a loss of faith in democracy. They stress the need to trust democratic systems despite imperfections and changing dynamics. The speaker urges vigilance in countering asymmetric warfare through the weaponization of information.

Leaders in government, business, and society must rebuild trust as trustees. However, the Davos 2024 attendees faced accusations of treason, involvement with Epstein, and a lack of transparency. The focus was on transitioning to a new world order while preserving core principles and institutions. Addressing climate change was deemed crucial, as no politician can reverse its effects. Journalists confronted attendees about their contracts and forced vaccinations, but many evaded the questions. Attendees were criticized for increasing child labor and perpetuating misery. The goal of combating misinformation and disinformation was emphasized, though some attendees avoided discussing it. Overall, there were calls to hold these proponents of a genocidal new world order accountable. Infowars also advertised their products.

Disinformation is profitable, so we must trace the money. A significant portion of advertising revenue supports harmful content. We need to collaborate with the global advertising industry to redirect ad dollars. This involves creating exclusion and inclusion lists to prioritize funding for accurate and relevant news and information. We must challenge the global advertising industry worldwide to focus its resources on disseminating truthful and beneficial information.

The top concerns for the global business community in the next 2 years are disinformation, misinformation, and polarization. These risks limit our ability to address major challenges such as climate change, geopolitical shifts, and regional conflicts. We are currently experiencing intense competition among countries, making the theme of this year's Davos meeting, rebuilding trust, even more relevant. It is crucial to focus on building trust and driving global collaboration to effectively tackle these challenges. Immediate and structural responses are needed to match the scale of these global challenges. The speaker believes that it is possible to achieve this.

The speaker discusses the global risks outlined in the annual global risk report, highlighting disinformation, misinformation, and polarization as top concerns. They emphasize the need for trust-building and global collaboration to address these challenges. The speaker also discusses the importance of public-private sector partnerships in finding solutions. They mention the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and Russia's failure in achieving its strategic goals. The speaker emphasizes the need to support Ukraine and empower its resistance. They also discuss Europe's progress in improving energy resilience and transitioning to clean energy. The speaker concludes by emphasizing the importance of tackling disinformation and misinformation, as well as responsible use of artificial intelligence. They believe that Europe can lead in industrial AI and calls for strengthening democracy and protecting it from interference.
