UK government outlines 5 objectives for AI summit

The UK government has detailed its plans for the global artificial intelligence (AI) Safety summit which will take place at Bletchley Park at the beginning of November.

The government has outlined five main topics that will be addressed at the summit. These are:

 a shared understanding of the risks posed by frontier AI and the need for action

 a forward process for international collaboration on frontier AI safety, including how best to support national and international frameworks

 appropriate measures which individual organisations should take to increase frontier AI safety

 areas for potential collaboration on AI safety research, including evaluating model capabilities and the development of new standards to support governance

 showcase how ensuring the safe development of AI will enable AI to be used for good globally

The government said that the AI Safety Summit will include key countries as well as technology organisations and academics to discuss the safety of AI development in technology and how it can be used for public good.

Earlier this week the House of Commons Science, Innovation and Technolgy Committee said the the UK government risks “falling behind” the EU and the US when it comes to passing laws to regulate AI.
