Rishi Sunak says the UK could lead the world on AI regulation as he said measures were needed to protect against the “extreme risks” it could pose as the technology becomes more widespread.
The Prime Minister wants the UK to be home to a global AI regulator and says the country will host a major summit on the technology in the autumn.
Speaking at London Tech Week, Mr Sunak said there was a concern about the impact on jobs and a “risk of misuse” by “bad actors”, as well as the potential for the technology to act in ways its creators had not expected.
