The UN Security Council will hold a meeting on artificial intelligence next week, according to a French diplomatic source. The discussion takes place amid growing international concern about the risks posed by rapidly advancing AI technologies.
The meeting is scheduled to be held during the UN General Assembly period, when many world leaders are in New York for UN headquarters events. The French diplomat said the council meeting would align with the time when France holds the rotating presidency of the Security Council, but did not provide further information on the specific day within that week.
Both reports describe the same announcement and provide similar context for why the meeting is timed with the General Assembly and France’s presidency. Neither outlet, in the available text, specifies which AI risks or policy proposals are expected to be discussed, nor does it name participating countries or speakers.
