Speaking ahead of the event in London, US Vice President Kamala Harris said that world leaders "must address the full spectrum of AI risks to humanity" and listed examples of faulty algorithms in healthcare, the use of AI in making "deepfakes", misinformation and biased facial recognition.

Democratic Rep. Dean Phillips, who's primary challenging the president, said he's'disappointed' Biden ally Rep. James Clyburn accused him of disrespecting Black voters. President Biden is kicking off his rural America tour Wednesday in Minnesota, the home state of Rep. Dean Phillips, who launched his 2024 Democratic presidential primary challenge just days ago. Biden is expected to announce $5 billion in new investments, including $1.7 billion in "climate-smart agriculture programs," $1 billion in broadband deployment, and some $2 billion in rural development programs. "I think there are obviously a lot of folks in Minnesota who understand and appreciate climate-smart agriculture and the enormous new income opportunities and environmental benefits that that accrues," U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack told the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

BLETCHLEY, United Kingdom--Here in the English countryside, at an estate where World War II codebreakers cracked the Nazis' Enigma encryption machine, world leaders pledged to work together to lessen risks of a technology they said also poses a grave threat. Artificial intelligence, they said, could in its most advanced forms create catastrophic risks in realms including cybersecurity and biotechnology--or even escape human control.

AI EXECUTIVE ORDER: Biden to require companies to share national security risks with feds. AI ORDER REACTION: Big tech firms weigh in on Biden's AI executive order. The military metaverse enables pilots to have more frequent training against relevant targets, Robinson said. AI SECURITY: AI helping improve security screening at public venues.

Three years ago, our trustees sat down to discuss AI and regulation. A lot has happened since then, both on the technological development front and on the policy front, so we thought it was time to tackle the topic again. You can read more about that here.] Joining the conversation this time are: Sabine Hauert (University of Bristol), Sarit Kraus (Bar-Ilan University), Michael Littman (Brown University), and Carles Sierra (CSIC). Sabine Hauert: Regulation of AI was a very hot topic a few months ago, and interest has definitely not died down.

This week, UK prime minister Rishi Sunak is hosting a group of 100 representatives from the worlds of business and politics to discuss the potential and pitfalls of artificial intelligence. The AI Safety Summit, held at Bletchley Park, UK, begins on 1 November and aims to come up with a set of global principles with which to develop and deploy "frontier AI models" – the terminology favoured by Sunak and key figures in the AI industry for powerful models that don't yet exist, but may be built very soon. While the Bletchley Park event is the focal point, there is a wider week of fringe events being held in the UK, alongside a raft of UK government announcements on AI. Here are the latest developments. The summit got off to a bang with the announcement that 28 countries have agreed a declaration saying global action is needed to tamp down the risks of AI.

The UK government's AI Safety Summit, which claims to be "bringing together the world to discuss frontier AI", has come under fire for a lack of diverse perspectives among its delegates, with critics dismissing it as little more than a photo opportunity. Prime minister Rishi Sunak is hosting a group of 100 representatives from business, politics and academia at Bletchley Park on 1 and 2 November to discuss the risks of so-called "frontier" AI models – defined as "highly capable general-purpose AI models that can perform a wide variety of tasks and match or exceed the capabilities present in today's most advanced models". But the government has not publicly revealed the list of delegates, and campaigners have criticised the narrow range of voices in attendance. Mark Lee at the University of Birmingham says the summit is a stage-managed "photo opportunity" rather than a chance for open discourse, and that it is focusing on the wrong problems. "We need an open debate," he says.

The UK, US, EU and China have all agreed that artificial intelligence poses a potentially catastrophic risk to humanity, in the first international declaration to deal with the fast-emerging technology. Twenty-eight governments signed up to the so-called Bletchley declaration on the first day of the AI safety summit, hosted by the British government. The declaration does not agree to set up an international testing hub in the UK, as some in the British government had hoped. But it does provide a template for international collaboration in the future, with future safety summits now planned in South Korea in six months' time and in France in a year. The declaration says: "There is potential for serious, even catastrophic, harm, either deliberate or unintentional, stemming from the most significant capabilities of these AI models."

Following President Joe Biden's sweeping executive order regarding AI development last week, at the UK AI Safety Summit yesterday, Vice President Kamala Harris announced even more machine learning initiatives, as well as the establishment of the United States AI Safety Institute. In cooperation with the Department of Commerce, the Biden administration will establish the United States AI Safety Institute (US AISI) within the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology). It will be responsible for creating and publishing guidelines, benchmark tests, best practices and more, for evaluating potentially dangerous AI systems. Tests may even include the red-team exercises President Biden mentioned in his executive order last week. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) -- it's an acronym-heavy morning -- will release the administration's first draft policy guidance on government AI use later this week.

Britain is to open its first artificial intelligence summit, bringing together heads of state and tech giants at a technological landmark near London. The two-day summit begins on Wednesday as concerns grow that the emerging technology may pose a danger to humanity. The meeting will focus on strategising a global, coordinated effort to address the risks and misuse of AI tools. The summit is led by UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who has called AI "the defining technology of our time". The summit will take place on Wednesday and Thursday.
