How AI Is Changing Humanity — A Conversation with Eric Sadin

#ArtificialIntelligence is not just a technological shift — it’s redefining what it means to be human. In an exclusive interview, French philosopher Eric Sadin reflects on how AI is transforming our relationship with knowledge, creativity, and ethics — raising urgent questions about our collective future. UNESCO works to ensure AI development is guided by human rights, dignity, and inclusion. Through the Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, the first global standard of its kind, we’re helping countries place people — not algorithms — at the center of innovation. In the same spirit, UNESCO’s Futures Literacy and Foresight Programme strengthens capacities to anticipate, prepare for, and actively shape social transformations — rather than merely react to them.
