U.S. urges hands-off approach to AI regulation at G20 tech meeting

The Japan Times

U.S. urges hands-off approach to AI regulation at G20 tech meeting Meta chief executive Mark Zuckerberg speaks via video conference to delegates at the G20 Innovation Ministerial summit, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, on Tuesday. CHAPEL HILL, North Carolina - The U.S. pressed G20 members on Tuesday to take a hands-off approach to artificial intelligence regulation and avoid creating rules for the technology, at a gathering of industry titans and commerce ministers in North Carolina. The U.S. goals largely align with the thinking of the world's biggest AI companies, nearly all of which are American. They want less regulation around the world for their rapidly growing businesses, or to shape the rules as they are written. Federal government requirements could hurt the industry's profits if they slow the release of new models or prompt the companies to change how their products perform to address security concerns.

'We'll find way to save Jodrell Bank,' Burnham says

BBC News

'We'll find way to save Jodrell Bank,' Burnham says Prime Minister Andy Burnham has vowed to save the UK's largest telescope at the Jodrell Bank Observatory. The Lovell telescope, which has stood in Cheshire since 1957, is the world's third-largest steerable radio telescope. But in July this year, UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) said the site would not be prioritised for further funding after its current agreement ended in March 2028. Burnham said: Every one of my generation went on a school trip to Jodrell Bank, and there is no way that we can see its demise, and it won't happen under my government. UKRI said its decision for the site was the result of a comprehensive, evidence-based prioritisation process.
