The UK and US chose not to sign an AI governance agreement at a Paris summit attended by 60 nations, citing concerns over national security and the importance of fostering innovation. US Vice President JD Vance criticized potential overregulation, arguing for pro-growth AI policies. In contrast, French President Emmanuel Macron advocated for regulatory measures to ensure AI’s ethical development. The UK's refusal raised questions about its commitment to AI safety and may undermine its global leadership in establishing ethical AI standards, as warned by experts.
By refusing to sign today's international AI Action Statement, the UK Government risks undercutting its hard-won credibility as a world leader for safe, ethical, and trustworthy AI innovation.
We need these rules for AI to move forward, as regulatory oversight is essential for AI's long-term success.
We need policies that encourage growth, as overregulation could kill a transformative industry just as it's taking off.
European leaders must approach AI with optimism rather than trepidation to foster an environment for innovation.
