00:00Artificial intelligence has the potential to do enormous good.

00:04Scientists are using AI to discover medications that could fight antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

00:11AI models are predicting natural disasters more accurately so that communities can better prepare.

00:16These tools are identifying new crystal structures that could help us build

00:21the next generation of electric vehicle batteries.

00:24In these ways, and so many other ways, AI could accelerate our progress on nearly 80 percent

00:30of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

00:33At the same time, as we've heard, if it's misused, AI can pose tremendous threats to

00:40the international peace and security that this Council is charged with upholding.

00:45With AI, hackers can make cyberattacks more destructive, harder to trace.

00:50Repressive regimes are using AI-enabled surveillance

00:54to target journalists and political dissidents, destabilizing societies.

00:58If algorithms are built into weapons systems, and if they malfunction,

01:03they could accidentally spark a conflict.

01:07By setting rules of the road for AI, we can minimize these risks.

01:12We can harness the exceptional promise of this technology.

01:15And we can realize the vision that the UN has tried in the Global Digital Compact – a future

01:21where technology is inclusive, where it's open, where it's sustainable, where it's fair, where

01:26it's safe, where it's secure – for people everywhere.

01:30For example, we want to make sure that senior officials oversee the development and deployment

01:35of AI, including in weapons systems, and that these tools are used in ways

01:39that follow international humanitarian law.

01:42Separately, in a meeting in November, President Biden and President Xi affirmed that

01:46only humans should control the decision to use nuclear weapons.

01:50The United States opposes the malicious use of AI by any actor,

01:54and we call on others on this Council to reject and to condemn these practices.

02:00We must adhere to our shared norms and build AI systems that are genuinely safe and secure.
