AI looks set to be transformative for us all, but it also brings a real risk of job losses and widening social and economic divides. UN experts are focusing on how to manage that transition, to ensure the benefits of the technology outweigh the threats.

UN is going to "manage the transition" - like it's some fucking destiny to implement AI and destroy the earth with yet another environment catastrophe... uh...shit

something...something...guillotines...luddites...working class solidarity. The transformation will happen in the destruction of corporate AI and the systems that allow the rich to control the working class. Fuck the UN "managing" the implementation of corporate AI.
