Paris, Mar 7 (Prensa Latina) Participants in a conference held at the UNESCO headquarters defended a governance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) focused on the human element, according to a communiqué from the UN agency. 'The challenges posed by artificial intelligence are not technological, they concern our own humanity; they are scientific, political, philosophical and ethical dilemmas,' UNESCO Director General Audrey Azoulay said at a meeting held this week. According to the French politician, 'it is time to define the ethical principles to frame that technical disruption and assure that artificial intelligence will be at the service of collective interests and will be based on humanistic values.' When referring to the work by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in terms of AI, Azoulay noted that they will work on the basis of the first report by the World Ethics and Scientific Ethics Commission, which is'devoted to artificial intelligence and will undoubtedly provide major scientific support for reflection and initiatives by the member States'. For his part, the secretary general of the Organization for Cooperation and Economic Development (OCED), Angel Gurria, noted the need to cooperate so that AI can be a vector of integrating and sustainable growth.
