The risks and opportunities of artificial intelligence in maintaining international peace and security were at the forefront of Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka's agenda while addressing the United Nations Security Council.
Rabuka says that AI can strengthen conflict prevention, cyber defense, and humanitarian response.
However, he says peace remains a human process involving trust, justice, and political will.
He says in conflict zones, including those affected by climate change and natural disasters, AI enhances the mapping and location of displaced populations.
Rabuka called for the establishment of a global governance architecture through an intergovernmental process to regulate the use of AI in peace and security, ensuring that its risks and challenges are clearly understood.
He emphasized the Ocean of Peace Declaration, through which Pacific leaders have declared the region a zone of peace, free from military interference and built on respect, sovereignty, and human rights.
