UN Chief Warns AI Is Developing Faster Than Rules Can Keep Up
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has issued a stark warning: artificial intelligence is developing faster than anyone can keep up.
In a speech to the international community, Guterres called for globally harmonised rules to reduce the potential risks of AI. He emphasized the protection of children, calling for safeguards specifically designed for them.
The warning reflects growing concern that current regulatory frameworks are insufficient to control technologies advancing at an unprecedented pace. Several countries are working on their own laws, but international coordination is lacking.
