The UN General Assembly has recently adopted a resolution aiming for ‘safe, secure and trustworthy artificial intelligence systems’ and the ‘Pact for the Future’ including a ‘Global Digital Compact’ and a ‘Declaration on Future Generations’. It is now urgent to implement and build on the UN General Assembly resolution and the ‘Pact for the Future’. This article suggests that an International Data-Based Systems Agency (IDA) needs to be established urgently at the UN as a global platform for technical cooperation in the field of data-based systems (DS) fostering human rights, safety, security, a rules-based international order, sustainability, and peaceful uses of data-based systems (DS) with a multilateral approach, as well as a global supervisory and monitoring institution and regulatory authority in the area of data-based systems (DS) responsible for access to market approval. |
