- Chief Executive Officer of Hugging Face, Clément Delangue, made a case for open-source AI models.
Delangue said, “cyber-attacks and risks may increasingly come from proprietary models behind closed doors, while much of the defence may end up being powered by open-source tools because they are less restricted, more privacy preserving and orders of magnitude more affordable for organisations across the globe. The world needs open-source AI more than ever to defend itself.”
He said, “even though we were the victims of this cyber-attack, we believe more strongly than ever that AI will be beneficial to cybersecurity and make the world safer, just as major technology before it. We were attacked by AI, but more importantly, we defended ourselves with AI.”

Turning to the situation in southern Lebanon, our UNIFIL colleagues tell us that Monday saw the highest daily number of Israeli airstrikes recorded by peacekeepers, while six IDF naval vessels crossed into Lebanese territories over Naqoura in the course of two days.
UNIFIL patrols were also blocked or stopped on several occasions at roadblocks in Sector East, preventing our peacekeepers from completing their missions. Nearby demolition activity also caused minor damage inside a UNIFIL position at Meiss al Jebel. On the humanitarian front, between Monday and Wednesday, UNIFIL facilitated five humanitarian missions across both of their sectors, working closely, obviously, with our humanitarian colleagues at OCHA to ensure that the assistance reaches everyone that needs to receive it.

Speaking at a high-level plenary meeting of the General Assembly marking the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons today (29 Sep) in New York, António Guterres said, “The rattling of nuclear sabers is growing louder. Advances in technology are increasing the odds of mistake and miscalculation.”
Guterres pointed to the expiry of the New START Treaty earlier this year. “For the first time in more than half a century, there are no binding limits on strategic nuclear arsenals,” he noted.
“The United States and the Russian Federation must negotiate a successor framework to New START,” the Secretary-General said.

- To mark the November Pogrom of 1938 (euphemistically called "Kristallnacht"), a discussion, “Understanding Past Realities of the Holocaust: Photography versus Art” will take place on 4 November 2026. Historians Dr Christoph Kreutzmüller and Dr Rachel Perry examine how photography and art depicted the Nazi state-orchestrated campaign of terror perpetrated against Jewish men, women and children across Germany, Austria and the Sudetenland from 9 to 10 November 1938 (the November Pogrom). The historians ask what photography and art reveal about the lived realities of the victims of the Pogrom, the interactions surrounding the violence and the broader society in which the violence was perpetrated. The discussion is organized by the Holocaust and the United Nations Outreach Programme together with the Fritz Ascher Society for Persecuted, Ostracized and Banned Art, and the Permanent Mission of Germany to the United Nations.

It's about giving people more agency in an ever more complex world, more ability to learn, to create, discover, build, participate.”
Altman said, “there are many things that AI cannot and should not automate. AI should be built for people not simply to turn the crank of the machines faster for their own sake.”
He said, “no one person or company or country should be able to use the most powerful AI models to impose their worldview on everyone else,” and added that “a company or country that believes only it can be trusted with this technology can use that belief to justify almost anything else.”
