Big Tech vows for “more ethical AI” at UN

Eight global tech companies, including Microsoft and Mastercard, have committed to developing more ethical AI that respects human rights, following UNESCO's guidelines, at a forum in Slovenia.

What you should know:

• Other companies include GSMA, Lenovo, INNIT, LG AI Research, Salesforce, and Telefonica.

• The agreement emphasizes human rights protection in AI's development and use.

• It hopes to improve AI safety and mitigate adverse effects.

• UNESCO sees this as a major step in promoting AI for the common good.

Why does this matter? Tch companies are making a promise to create AI in a way that's fair and respects everyone's rights, which can help stop AI from making unfair choices. Imagine an AI used for hiring people that doesn't give everyone a fair chance because of their gender – this agreement is trying to prevent such situations.
