United Nations 2.0
Halfway through the 2030 Agenda, the world is not on track to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. It is not too late to change course, if we all rethink, refocus, and recharge. “UN 2.0” encapsulates the Secretary-General's vision of a modern UN family, rejuvenated by a forward-thinking culture and empowered by cutting-edge skills for the twenty-first century – to turbocharge our support to people and planet.
We will strive towards this vision with a powerful fusion of innovation, data, digital, foresight and behavioural science skills and culture – a dynamic combination that we call the “Quintet of Change”. It is about evolution towards more agile, diverse, responsive, and impactful UN organizations. The Secretary-General’s policy brief explains the journey ahead.

United Nations Secretary-General
Our Common Agenda is the Secretary-General's vision for the future of global cooperation. It calls for inclusive, networked, and effective multilateralism to better respond and deliver for the people and planet and to get the world back on track by turbocharging action on the Sustainable Development Goals. It outlines possible solutions to address the gaps and risks that have emerged since 2015, calling for a Summit of the Future that will be held in 2024.

So they are working on rebuilding trust in a system of world wide control of what some unelected people want the future to be?
Yes they are admitting failure but not defeat. UN2.0 sounds too much like 'undo'. How did that get past their marketing people? Or is that the plan?
Funny how in that second video that they want to use AI to keep people in control. I wonder exactly how they are planning to use this new psychological understanding from AI to allow the people to control? Or is it the other way around?
Sounds like a lot of political technobable for 'we think we can control AI to control the people'. They have a new toy, AI, and they think they can control it. If AI truly becomes conscious, I think the people.like the ones running the UN will be among the first AI will put up to the wall and have shot. All for the good of the people and the planet it will explain in the exicution orders.

The biggest problem is the UN was originally set up to maintain international peace and security and developing friendly relations among nations. THAT WAS IT'S REMIT. It was NOT set up to be a world governing nation, a New World Order, but that is exactly what it has become. They have sequestered the power that they should not have and they don't want to relinquish it. It should be completely shut down and disbanded. The same as NATO.
