The United Kingdom will host the first global summit on Artificial Intelligence (AI) this year, seeking a common approach to limiting the potential risks of the technology without losing its benefits, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced Wednesday.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said, “Many times throughout history we have invented new, paradigm-shifting technologies and harnessed them for the good of humanity. That’s what we have to do again.”
“Artificial Intelligence (AI) has tremendous potential to change our lives for the better. But we need to ensure that it is developed and used in a safe way,” said Sunak.
The summit will be held in September and will bring together “countries with like-minded approaches” to lay the groundwork for a bill, the British leader’s spokesman said.
The UK wants to host the headquarters of the global regulator of artificial intelligence, but it is unclear whether there is a consensus with the United States and the European Union, which has debated about the feasibility of making a code of ethics.
“England is well positioned to play a leading role. Outside of the United States, we are probably the leading country in artificial intelligence, among democracies. We have the ability to get regulations right to protect our citizens,” Sunak told TalkTV.
Artificial intelligence has proven useful in reading medical images and has even shown that they can pass the licensing exam for doctors. https://t.co/TxVjNWoIZi
