() The Trump administration plans to create a verification system that would use artificial intelligence to enforce the United Nations’ rules on biological weapons, the president announced Tuesday.

Trump told the U.N. General Assembly he’ll be meeting with international leaders about the project and hopes it will “play a constructive role” in tech development.

The U.N.’s Biological Weapons Convention prohibits the “development, production, acquisition, transfer, stockpiling and use of biological and toxin weapons.”

Trump likened those weapons to an alleged lab leak that some believe started the COVID-19 pandemic a theory supported by reports from the Republican-led House Oversight Committee and the CIA.

“Just a few years ago, reckless experiments overseas gave us a devastating global pandemic. Yet despite that worldwide catastrophe, many countries are continuing extremely risky research into bioweapons and man-made pathogens,” Trump said Tuesday.

Chinese authorities have dismissed the reports as politically motivated, according to the Associated Press, and some scientists maintain the theory that the virus circulated among animals such as bats and raccoons before jumping to humans.
