The United Nations has engaged with artificial intelligence governance through multiple channels. The Global Digital Compact, adopted at the UN Summit of the Future in 2024, includes principles and commitments on AI safety, rights, and international cooperation. Separately, the UN has supported discussions on establishing independent scientific panels to advise on AI policy, drawing parallels to the IPCC model for climate science. These efforts reflect the UN's role as a forum for multilateral coordination on emerging technologies, though no single unified 'AI track' organization exists as a formal UN body.
