The FOC acknowledges that artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer unprecedented opportunities for human development and innovation, with the potential to generate social and economic benefits and help protect and promote human rights and fundamental freedoms. When developed and used in full respect of human rights, AI systems can complement human endeavours across fields such as public and precision health and environmental science to improve people’s lives and support the UN Sustainable Development Goals. States play a critical role in promoting these benefits for all.
