Mnangagwa urges global unity, says AI is reshaping world at record speed

PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa says the world must rebuild trust to manage the unprecedented transformation being driven by Artificial Intelligence and digital connectivity.

Mnangagwa made the remarks shortly after landing in New York for the 81st Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), whose theme this year is “Restoring trust, managing transformation: A United Nations that delivers for all”.

Posting on his official X account, President Mnangagwa said the theme accurately captures the defining moment facing humanity, noting that technological advances are unfolding faster than ever before.

He said while AI and enhanced connectivity are opening vast opportunities for growth and development, they also demand collective responsibility to guarantee that their benefits are shared equitably and that online spaces remain safe.
