The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

The international community has rightly aligned itself with the US on this issue on behalf of a truly rules-based order. After months of negotiations and collaborative edits, this first-of-its-kind resolution not only calls for security and privacy measures but also to use AI as a means of enhancing wealth, education, healthcare, and environmental sustainability around the world.

Establishment-critical narrative

International AI resolutions won't mean much until governments agree not to use this technology for military purposes. Powerful governments like the US have already begun creating autonomous weapons, efforts that place everyone in grave danger. If the UN wants to show good faith to the world, it should restrict the use of autonomous weapons and prohibit the integration of this software into nuclear bombs.
