🌐 UNESCO Calls for a Halt on AI

Following the letter proposed by Elon Musk and other tech leaders yesterday, UNESCO (a specialized agency of the United Nations) just called for countries to implement its recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence immediately. 

The "Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence" sets the necessary safeguards for AI: 

  • Adopted unanimously by 193 member states
  • Addresses discrimination and stereotyping
  • Tackles disinformation and privacy rights
  • Focuses on personal data protection
  • Emphasizes human and environmental rights

As the first global framework for ethical AI use, UNESCO aims to maximize AI's benefits while minimizing risks, providing countries with essential guidance. 

Read the recommendation here.
