UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned in Geneva on Monday that the development of artificial intelligence is progressing faster than governments and regulatory mechanisms can keep up with. At the UN conference on artificial intelligence, he called for internationally coordinated rules to limit the potential risks of this technology. Die Zeit ↗
Guterres pointed out that artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing the world, and its use without sufficient oversight could bring serious social consequences. According to him, it is necessary to create global guardrails so that the technology does not develop beyond the control of public institutions and without common rules. RTE News ↗
He specifically emphasized the protection of children. He warned that children should not be exposed to unregulated use of artificial intelligence as test subjects. The UN is therefore pushing for rules that would reduce the risks associated with the rapid rollout of new systems into practice.
The call comes at a time when governments and international organizations are trying to find a common approach to regulating artificial intelligence. Guterres made clear that without a coordinated approach, it will not be possible to ensure that the development of this technology remains under democratic and social control.
