China, the United States, the European Union and 25 other countries signed the first international declaration on Wednesday on the “safe” development of artificial intelligence (AI). The Bletchley Declaration acknowledged that rapid technological progress carries risks.
“There is the potential for serious, even catastrophic harm, intentional or not, resulting from the core capabilities of these AI models,” the statement said.
Therefore, the 28 participating countries agreed on the “urgent need to collectively understand and manage the potential risks of AI,” through “a new global effort aimed at ensuring that AI is used in a safe and responsible manner.” ”
The summit did not lay the foundations for international legislation on AI, but aimed to ‘chart a way forward’.
Michelle Donelan, UK Minister for Technology.
The declaration was agreed at a summit at Bletchley Park, north of the British capital, London. The aim of the meeting is “to demonstrate for the first time that the world is united to identify problems and highlight opportunities,” said Michelle Donelan, Britain’s Technology Minister.
The summit does not lay the foundation for international legislation on AI, but aims to “chart a path to follow,” the minister added. For example, two leading international conferences on AI will follow in the next twelve months. There will be a summit in South Korea in six months, and France will hold a summit in a year.
With generative AI, text, sound, or images can be generated in seconds. This technology has grown exponentially in recent years. Huge progress is expected to be made in areas such as medicine and education, but according to the British government, this technology also threatens the stability of society or escapes human control.
