The United States is leading efforts to pass the first-ever United Nations resolution on artificial intelligence (AI). The draft resolution aims to ensure the safety, security, and equal access to AI technology, bridging the digital divide between countries. It highlights the importance of inclusive discussions on AI and the need for global consensus on safe and trustworthy AI systems. While not legally binding, the resolution would establish principles for AI development and use and provide a framework to leverage its potential while mitigating risks. The resolution has gained consensus support from all 193 UN member states and aims to accelerate progress towards the UN's Sustainable Development Goals for 2030.
