During a speech at the UN Human Rights Council, Türk emphasized that the threat from advanced AI is unprecedented and that the concentration of power in the hands of a few corporate executives is alarming.

Türk urges the industry and countries to urgently agree on safety limits for how AI can be developed and used.

I call here today for a full-scale effort to introduce secure safeguards around the safety of AI before it is too late.
