On the 23rd, Fu Cong, China's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, articulated during the Security Council's open debate on 'Artificial Intelligence and International Security' that the global community ought to bolster unity and collaboration, strike a balance between development and security, steer AI towards beneficial trajectories, and foster global peace and prosperity. He underscored that AI has become profoundly embedded within the worldwide industrial supply chain and innovation ecosystem, emphasizing that nations should possess the autonomy to select pertinent technologies, products, and services independently, guided by their unique requirements and market dynamics. In addressing the potential hazards associated with AI, it is imperative to enhance regulatory frameworks, emergency response capabilities, and cross-border cooperation mechanisms, while staunchly opposing the misuse of AI by terrorist organizations, extremist factions, and transnational criminal syndicates. AI, as a shared treasure of humanity, must not be relegated to the exclusive domain of a select few affluent countries and individuals.
