UN Scientific Advisory Board

🎙️ Our partners at the @ScienceBoard_UN have just the thing for your weekend listening queue! They have officially launched Science Forward, the Secretary-General’s Scientific Advisory Board podcast, and episode 01 unpacks one of the most pressing challenges in today’s AI landscape: deception in AI systems and the risks it poses for societies worldwide. This discussion was also recently addressed on a Southern Voice article written by Jai Asundi (ED of @CSTEP_India), building on the UN Scientific Advisory Board's latest Scientific Brief on AI Deception. The piece explores what AI deception means specifically for the Global South, where unequal access to regulation, infrastructure, and digital safeguards can deepen existing vulnerabilities. You can read it here: southernvoice.org/unpacking-ai-d… Congratulations to the UN SAB team on this exciting launch, and we look forward to following the series! 👏
