The AI Divide: From Warning to Action - Goals Lounge | United Nations

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming a defining driver of economic growth, innovation, and social development. Yet access to AI capabilities remains deeply uneven across countries and populations, creating a growing AI divide. AI offers unprecedented opportunities to accelerate progress, but, without urgent action, disparities in connectivity, compute infrastructure, digital skills, and local innovation ecosystems could leave too many behind.

Our intention is to move beyond warning and into action, exploring concrete steps to bridge the rapidly growing divide.
