(UN News) UN Secretary-General António Guterres on Friday urged governments and technology companies to work together to ensure artificial intelligence (AI) benefits all countries. He warned that without international cooperation the technology could widen global inequality instead of advancing sustainable development. Speaking at the opening ceremony of the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai, Mr. Guterres described AI as “humanity’s greatest opportunity in the 21st century”, but cautioned that it could also become “one of its greatest risks”. “Technology that will shape the future of humanity must be shaped by all of humanity”, he said, stressing that AI governance “cannot be governed by a handful of countries or companies” and that “every nation needs a seat at the table”. – Guterres: AI must be shaped by ‘all of humanity’, not a handful of powers | UN News
