Breaking Barriers: A \"Human-Centered\" AI Future for All
In a game-changing move, a UN resolution led by China and backed by over 140 countries—including the U.S.—was unanimously adopted this week. Dubbed a win for global solidarity, it aims to ensure AI development prioritizes equality and bridges the digital divide between nations.
No Country Left Behind
The resolution stresses that developing nations must have a seat at the AI table, calling for stronger international cooperation to boost their tech capacities. Think of it as a global group project where everyone gets equal credit!
\"AI shouldn't be a VIP club,\" said China's UN rep Fu Cong. \"Our goal? Make sure all countries—especially those still building basic infrastructure—can harness AI to meet sustainable development goals by 2030.\"

A new Deloitte survey of 11,900 people in the Asia-Pacific region reveals developing economies like India and Southeast Asia are adopting generative AI faster than developed ones. Why? Youth power! With 46% of India's respondents under 35, digital natives are leveraging AI for work, healthcare, and education like never before.
The Road Ahead
Experts like UN AI Advisor Zeng Yi warn that while rich nations debate ethics, many countries lack even basic AI tools. This resolution could be the first step toward turning AI from a luxury into a lifeline.
