UN General Assembly Takes First Step Toward Global AI Governance
——————————-
Amid the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence technologies worldwide, effective and coordinated international regulations remain lacking.

According to Reuters, a high-level United Nations meeting held on September 25 convened all 193 member states for the first time to participate in shaping a framework for global AI governance.

The event brought together diplomats, scientists, technology activists, private sector representatives, and civil society groups to address gaps in representation and coordination in global AI policymaking.

Participants emphasized the urgent need for international collaboration to manage AI’s transformative potential while mitigating risks related to ethics, security, and economic impact.

The UN aims to create a structured approach that balances innovation with oversight, ensuring AI development serves humanity’s broader interests.
