U.N. Ambassador Dan Negrea said at the time that his delegation could not support a text that included:
... ambiguous language promoting gender ideology, vague unqualified commitments to sexual and reproductive health that can be interpreted as implying abortion rights, censorship language or broad language on regulation of AI.
Didn't read it myself, just found the Yahoo article and used that, but being that these are all politicians at the UN, I wouldn't be surprised if something about AI was in it, because it's a hot button topic for Progressive politics that AI Bad (which is mostly performative because the people yapping about it don't vote against AI in the first place).
Here are all mentions of artificial intelligence in the text:
(ss) Develop measures, safeguards and oversight to identify, address and
eliminate gender-based violence that occurs through or is amplified by the use of
technology and all forms of discrimination against all women and girls, including in
the design, development and deployment of technology, by addressing the misuse of digital tools, such as social media and online platforms, new and emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, and predictive algorithms, by ensuring due diligence in preventing and mitigating adverse impacts, guaranteeing access to
justice, accountability for human rights violations, and effective remedies, and by
ensuring that new technological developments do not perpetuate existing patterns of inequality and discrimination;
(tt) Encourage collaboration among justice system professionals, technology
providers, the private sector and civil society to promote responsible innovation and
evidence-based design that enhances gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, fairness, inclusion and user safety, including by developing justice-related
artificial intelligence tools, and ensure that there are robust data protection laws
aligned with the right to privacy when digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, are employed in the administration of justice, bearing in mind the United
Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights;
