Sunak: World’s first AI safety institute to be set up in UK

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak made the announcement in a speech in London that the UK will serve as the home base for the first AI Safety Institute, as the nation takes the lead in researching and testing novel forms of artificial intelligence.

If this is done incorrectly, AI may make the development of chemical or biological weapons simpler. AI might be used by terrorist organizations to wreak even more havoc and terror. According to Sunak, criminals might utilize AI for fraud, disinformation campaigns, cyberattacks, or even child sex abuse.

He went so far as to discuss the "most unlikely and extreme fears around AI, which is sometimes referred to as super intelligence," such as the possibility that mankind could completely lose control over technology.

People shouldn't be losing sleep over this risk at this time. I wish to avoid seeming alarmist. There is a lot of discussion regarding this, and some experts believe it won't happen at all. However hazy and implausible these possibilities may seem, Sunak stated that the repercussions would be grave if they materialized.
