The United Nations is emphasizing the urgent need for global governance of artificial intelligence (AI) to ensure it benefits humanity and avoids risks. This call follows the rising concerns and discussions about AI’s potential since the release of ChatGPT in 2022. UN Secretary-General António Guterres has highlighted the necessity of a High-Level Advisory Body on Artificial Intelligence (HLAB-AI), which has outlined seven key measures for inclusive AI development.
Among them are the establishment of an international scientific panel, a global data framework, and a worldwide fund to aid developing nations. The body stresses the importance of a cooperative and inclusive global architecture to protect human rights and foster equitable AI advancements.
The initiative also aims to prevent the monopolization of AI by a few multinational companies and ensure that all nations have a voice in its governance.
