Recognizing the urgency of these concerns, UNESCO published the first-ever global standard on AI ethics: the "Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence." Adopted by 193 Member States in November 2021, this framework seeks to ensure that AI technologies are developed and utilized in ways that respect and promote human rights and dignity. Central to the Recommendation are four core values: respect for human rights and human dignity; the promotion of peaceful, just, and interconnected societies; the commitment to diversity and inclusiveness; and the flourishing of the environment and ecosystems (UNESCO, 2021b).
