UK works with OpenAI and Google DeepMind to ensure society benefits from AI technology
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the bosses of leading artificial intelligence companies OpenAI, Google DeepMind and Anthropic will work together to ensure society benefits from transformative technology, they said in a statement after the meeting on Wednesday.
According to the statement, Sunak and the technology leaders — OpenAI’s Sam Altman, Google DeepMind’s Demis Hassabis and Anthropic’s Dario Amodei — discussed risks posed by artificial intelligence, from disinformation and national security to existential threats.
They also discussed security measures, voluntary actions labs are considering to manage risks, and possible avenues for international cooperation on AI safety and regulation, it added.
Britain announced in March that it would split responsibility for managing AI between existing human rights, health and safety and competition regulators, rather than creating a new body dedicated to the technology.
