Manila, Feb. 11 -- Speaker Faustino "Bojie" Dy III on Wednesday called on Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member parliaments to pursue responsible governance of artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging technologies to prevent their misuse by terrorist and violent extremist groups.

Dy made the call in his keynote address at the opening of a parliamentary training course on legislative and policy measures to address the use of AI and new technologies for terrorism and violent extremism.

The training course is being held under the theme "Parliaments Securing a Peaceful, Prosperous, and People-Centered ASEAN," with the Philippine House of Representatives holding the presidency of the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Assembly.
