Looks like the UK is leading the world by shamelessly sacrificing AI safety at the altar of Trump. Appeasement never works and we have gone backwards towards again being spineless lapdogs in this special relationship.
I remember when we shamelessly followed them in supporting the Iraq war via a sexed up document.
AI can be very error prone and has the potential to be seriously dangerous. It has been said to be used for military purposes and when life and death is in the hands of a computer’s decision, who is going to take responsibility for this? Dangerous. We need protections.
We may be on the wrong side of history here. Cowardly from Keir’s Labour. I wonder if we traded this for zero tariffs.
That’s seems to be a theme. I thought I would be underwhelmed by this government, but at least thankful for a period of sensible leadership who understood the benefit of a strong public sector.
Actually I’m more than disappointed. Cowardice is their watchword. Cowardly hiding from the right wing media, from US authoritarianism, from market fundamentalists. We’ll get Reform next at this rate, because we’ll be encouraged to give up by astroturfers who will similarly be whipping the rarely engaged into a frenzy.
