reference news reported on september 21according to a report on the spanish newspaper el país website on september 19, “for developing economies, artificial intelligence (ai) opens up the possibility of overcoming outdated technology and directly serving those who need it most. but the potential for positive change it brings remains difficult to grasp, and without considering possible catastrophic scenarios, the malicious use of ai will clearly undermine people’s trust in institutions, weaken social cohesion and threaten democracy.”

accordingly, un secretary-general guterres proposed last year the need to establish an ai advisory body: the united nations high-level advisory body on artificial intelligence (hlab-ai). the body is composed of 39 outstanding ai leaders from 33 countries and released seven basic measures (final report) on the 19th to ensure the development of inclusive ai, in the words of guterres, "benefiting all mankind and avoiding risks."

the final report, titled "human-centered ai governance," released on the 19th, involved more than 2,000 people and has completed preliminary work. it calls for the establishment of a cooperative and inclusive global ai architecture to "promote development and protect all human rights."

the advisory body lamented the absence of a "global framework for ai" and a lack of commitment from member states.

“with ai development in the hands of a small number of multinational corporations in a small number of countries, the impacts of ai implementation are likely to be imposed on the majority of people, who have no say in the decisions,” the report warned.
