More than 50 members of the United Nations have joined the U.S. in pursuing a draft resolution to establish artificial intelligence (AI) safety guidelines.
U.S. Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield on Thursday read a statement that discussed the draft resolution titled “Seizing the Opportunities of Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence Systems for Sustainable Development,” which would aim to “articulate a shared approach to AI systems.”
“The resolution calls on Member States to promote safe, secure, and trustworthy AI systems to address the world’s greatest challenges, including those related to poverty elimination, global health, food security, climate, energy, and education,” Thomas-Greenfield said in a prepared statement.
“We are resolved to bridge the artificial intelligence and other digital divides between and within countries through capacity building, increasing digital literacy, and other actions,” she added.
