He made the remarks during the UN Security Council\u2019s high-level debate on AI\u2019s security implications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guterres stated that AI is no longer a distant concept but is already transforming daily life, the information space, and the global economy at unprecedented speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He stressed that the question is not whether AI will affect international peace and security but how the world will shape its influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The UN chief revealed that AI, when used responsibly, can:<br>\u2022 Predict food insecurity and support de-mining operations<br>\u2022 Identify outbreaks of violence before they escalate<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, he cautioned that without guardrails, AI can be weaponised. He pointed to AI-enabled targeting in recent conflicts, cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, and deepfakes that could fuel polarization or derail diplomacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guterres outlined four priorities for governments: maintain human control over the use of force, build global regulatory frameworks, protect information integrity, and close the AI capacity gap between rich and poor nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also reported that the UN is taking action, including forming an independent scientific panel on AI and launching a global dialogue on AI governance in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/New_York_City\">New York<\/a> on Thursday. These initiatives aim to connect science, policy, and practice, give every country a seat at the table, and reduce fragmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UN Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres called for urgent AI regulation,warning that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":101913,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9617],"tags":[2725],"contributor":[9732],"class_list":["post-101907","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","tag-artificial-intelligence","contributor-news-desk"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/UN.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Lubna","author_link":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/author\/lubna\/"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101907","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/58"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=101907"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101907\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":101909,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101907\/revisions\/101909"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/101913"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=101907"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=101907"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=101907"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=101907"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
