UN AI report to close gaps in government responses: Tech envoyThe U.N. last week created a 39-member advisory body to address issues in the international governance of AI. "We need to examine the landscape of existing governance responses across borders, and then see where the gaps are and how we can connect the governance responses together so that there are no gaps," Gill said. Europe is close to agreeing new AI rules while U.S. President Joe Biden issued a new executive order on AI on Monday. Guterres had in June backed a proposal by some AI executives for the creation of an international AI watchdog body like the International Atomic Energy Agency. The AI body, co-chaired by Spanish digital minister Carme Artigas and Alphabet's James Manyika, will have at least three in-person meetings and several virtual meetings.
