1. computing cluster: 컴퓨팅 클러스터 

*여러 대의 컴퓨터(노드)를 네트워크로 연결하여 하나의 거대한 시스템처럼 작동하게 만든 집합체

2. ITU: 국제전기통신연합

3. co-facilitator: 공동촉진자

4. Permanent Representatives: 상임이사국

5. President Zniber 오마르 즈니버 의장 

*모로코 유엔 인권이사회 의장

6. SDGs:  지속가능발전목표

7. UN Activities Report on AI: 유엔 인공지능 활동 보고서

8. AI for Good Global Summit: AI for Good 글로벌 서밋

Cyber insecurity is among the top 10 most severe global risks.
Photos of children are being scraped off the web to create powerful AI tools without the knowledge or consent of 

the children or their families. Deepfakes and misinformation are blurring reality, eroding trust in our elections and institutions.
AI systems are showing gender bias and increasingly impacting our environment.
Meanwhile, not one of the top 100 high-performance computing clusters in the world capable of training large AI models is hosted in a developing country. These are just some of the most complex and pressing challenges we're facing.
ITU is tackling many of them head-on. 
Front and centre are the 2.6 billion people still offline around the world, even as the pace of AI development continues 

unabated.
Even among those connected, far too many people lack: the means, high-speed connectivity, digital skills, or trust to fully

benefit from new and emerging technologies.
Closing the digital divide is central to the non-paper on AI presented by the co-facilitators and Permanent Representatives: of The Gambia, Luxembourg, and the Republic of Korea to President Zniber in April.
I want to recognize the Council's work in this critical area and reaffirm ITU's support.
Ladies and gentlemen, The actions we take now will have a lasting impact for generations to come. 
We have a historic — and narrow — window before us.
To succeed, we need to focus our energy on three fronts: First, Harnessing digital and emerging technologies to rescue 

the SDGs; Second, Balancing innovation with safeguards that respect and protect human rights; Third, Ensuring international 

cooperation by bringing all stakeholders, including those from developing countries, to the table.
Rescuing the SDGs.
Let's break them down quickly. 
First, rescuing the SDGs.
Only 17 percent of the SDG targets are on track to be achieved by 2030. Like all of you, I refuse to settle for a 17 percent 

chance at a more fair and just digital future.
Especially when ITU has shown that game-changing digital solutions like AI can accelerate progress on 70 percent of all the SDG targets.
Our latest UN Activities Report on AI highlights more than 400 projects covering all 17 SDGs.
ITU is already using AI to connect schools, improve early warning systems, advance healthcare, and more.
At our AI for Good Global Summit in July, we saw dozens of applications that are changing people's lives everywhere.
