Memorandum highlights four upstream AI risks, emphasizing their impact on society and structure.
This memorandum provides a scientific briefing on four upstream AI risks not included in the current United Nations report on artificial intelligence. These risks—degradation of the human role, reorganization of social relations, reorganization of perception and truth, and reorganization of decision-making and civilizational structures—are active generative processes already reshaping human society. The document also outlinesAI’s emergence as a physical and operational actor, the strategic implications of autonomous weapons,the role of children as the upstream of future human coherence, and the necessity of understanding the three generative worlds (Human, AI, Earth) and their coherence mechanism. The memorandum concludes with recommendations for the UN and the Independent International Scientific Panel on AI to ensure a complete and upstream-aware analysis of global AI risks.
