Happy #GirlsInICT Day! The future of tech and AI is stronger when girls are not just included—but leading, creating, and shaping it with their own ideas and vision. ✨ @unicc_ict @WIPO @NYUSPS @ITU @ITUDevelopment @equals

Women make up… < 30% of researchers, < 20% of STEM leadership positions, 3% of Nobel laureates in sciences. To change the numbers, we need to change the mindsets. ℹ️ on.unesco.org/2WAjvlj #WomenInScience

“The UN is a living promise – a promise that despite our differences, we will solve problems together.” @antonioguterres stresses solidarity & justice must prevail in these uncertain times. “Even in the rough seas of today, we can anchor our action in peace, dignity & hope.”

I've just invoked Art.99 of the UN Charter - for the 1st time in my tenure as Secretary-General. Facing a severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza, I urge the Council to help avert a humanitarian catastrophe & appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared.

And now, we all get some sleep😴
We have reached an agreement in principle for Sam Altman to return to OpenAI as CEO with a new initial board of Bret Taylor (Chair), Larry Summers, and Adam D'Angelo. We are collaborating to figure out the details. Thank you so much for your patience through this.

i love you all. today was a weird experience in many ways. but one unexpected one is that it has been sorta like reading your own eulogy while you’re still alive. the outpouring of love is awesome. one takeaway: go tell your friends how great you think they are.
