The first global forum on AI safety is held in Britain.

The inaugural AI Safety Summit will be held by the UK government in Bletchley Park, the location of the codebreakers who broke the code that ended World War II.

In a news release on Thursday, the government said that it would host the summit, which would bring together prominent AI businesses, international governments, and research specialists to talk about "the safe development and use of leading AI technology."

The British government announced that the conference will take place on November 1 and 2 of next year. It will examine the risks associated with new technologies, particularly as they relate to the boundaries of development, and will explore ways in which these risks might be reduced by globally coordinated action.

 "We must control and address the risks to ensure that it develops safely in the years ahead," British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said in a statement on Thursday. "To fully grasp the extraordinary opportunities of artificial intelligence, we must control and address the risks."

"We can secure the rapid international action we need for the safe and responsible development of AI around the world," he continued. "Through the combined strength of our international partners, the thriving AI industry, and the dedicated academic community."

It is interesting to note that the leading lights in the new technology race are mostly well-known American tech giants. Examples include Microsoft, a vocal backer of the startup (OpenAI), which is the owner of the chatbot (ChatGPT), and Google, the creator of the chatbot (ChatGPT). The creators of the Llama language model were Bard and Metta.

DeepMind and the online media hub Synthesia, which enables users to make videos using the technology, are two of the top firms engaged in the study, creation, and use of artificial intelligence that is based in the UK.

The code-breakers who helped decipher the secret Enigma code used by the German government to control ground-air operations on the Eastern Front during World War II were housed in the renowned Bletchley Park complex.

Alan Turing, an English mathematician, computer scientist, and cryptographer, oversaw the operation that decoded communications pertaining to German military planning. Theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence are usually credited to Turing.
