Description

Objectives

  • Deepen understanding of how AI is transforming the counter-terrorism landscape- as a force multiplier for law enforcement and security services, and as a tool that can be
    exploited by terrorist actors.
  • Showcase operational use of AI for counter-terrorism and terrorist purposes, including AI-enabled investigations, threat assessments, the misuse of generative technologies for synthetic media production and cyber-enabled attacks.
  • Highlight United Nations capacity-building efforts, including collaboration with academic institutes to develop and integrate AI-based tools.
  • Discuss how Member States can respond to evolving threats and harness the potential
    of responsible, safe, secure, and trustworthy AI in counter-terrorism.
