Two years ago , more than a thousand leaders in artificial intelligence called for an immediate six-month pause in AI research pending the creation of common safety standards.

France and India will co-host an international summit in Paris searching for accords better to ensure the safety of AI , following the 2023 British -hosted summit in Bletchley Park .

The prime minister, Keir Starmer , rightly endorsed the report: he will put the full weight of the British state’ behind all 50 recommendations.

Generating our national AI champions (and, I would add, protecting our civilisation) will imply strategic industrial activism.
