LONDON, United Kingdom - The UK government will welcome foreign political leaders, tech industry figures, academics and others this week for a two-day summit billed as the first of its kind on artificial intelligence .The gathering, set to be attended by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, US Vice President Kamala Harris, EU chief Ursula von der Leyen and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, will focus on growing fears about the implications of so-called frontier AI.
"We will push hard to agree the first ever international statement about the nature of these risks," he added, proposing the creation of an international expert panel similar to one formed for climate change. The summit will be held at a deliberately symbolic location: Bletchley Park, where top British codebreakers cracked Nazi Germany's"Enigma" code, helping to hasten the end of World War II.
In his speech, Sunak stressed the need for countries to develop"a shared understanding of the risks that we face".However, the lack of world leaders, particularly from G7 countries, has dominated discussion of the summit in Britain.
