Amanda Brock also explained: “The UK’s late mover advantage on tech regulation puts the nation in a uniquely advantageous position to learn from other nations who were quick to regulate, and to find an agile, flexible middle ground that puts the needs of the tech community first, whilst safely managing any risks. Inevitably, the key opportunity for the UK is to enable AI openness.”
“We will have the global tech community in attendance at this year’s event, with leading lights from Silicon Valley coming to London to share ideas and frameworks for workable AI policy. Their input will help to appropriately shape the next steps in AI regulation, alongside helping to build out internationally inclusive, collaborative cross-border R&D and international co-operation in an ‘open manner’.”
