UK parliamentarians join call to regulate most powerful AI systems

It is reported that over 100 UK parliamentarians are urging the government to implement binding regulations on the most advanced AI systems, expressing concerns that superintelligent AI could jeopardize national and global security. This cross-party group, including former AI minister Jonathan Berry and ex-defence secretary Des Browne, is advocating for stricter controls on frontier AI technologies.

The initiative follows warnings from AI pioneers like Yoshua Bengio, who highlighted the lack of regulation in the field.
