Sunak Keeps Up Push To Make UK a Leader in AI Regulation

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will on Monday keep up his push to give Britain a leading role in global regulation of artificial intelligence, while warning industry leaders the nation must act quickly to retain its position as one of the world’s tech capitals.

“Already we’ve seen AI help the paralyzed to walk; and discover superbug-killing antibiotics – and that’s just the beginning,” Sunak is due to say, according to remarks released by his office. “The possibilities are extraordinary. But we must – and we will – do it safely.”
