Sony (6758.T) Chief Technology Officer Hiroaki Kitano, OpenAI CTO Mira Murati and Microsoft (MSFT.O) Chief Responsible AI Officer Natasha Crampton are among the executives representing technology companies.
Since OpenAI launched ChatGPT last year, interest in the new technology has spread across the world, leading AI researchers to raise concerns about "risks to society."
While many governments are working to formulate laws to regulate the spread of AI, researchers and lawmakers have called for global collaboration.
The UN body will issue preliminary recommendations by the end of this year and final recommendations by the summer of 2024.
