[ad_1]

British prime minister Rishi Sunak on Thursday said that like-minded governments and artificial intelligence companies had reached agreement on testing new AI models before they were released.
Sunak is hosting a 2-day AI Safety Summit where on Wednesday he secured China’s backing for an international effort to manage the risks of the technology.
On Thursday, Sunak announced a further “landmark agreement” with “like-minded governments and AI companies.” A list of the countries that had signed up to the safety testing collaboration did not include China, whose representatives were not included in the second day of talks.Representatives from the US, EU, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Canada and Australia were involved in the talks.
Asked why China had not been invited to discuss AI model testing, Sunak said it had been right to invite China to some parts of the summit, in line with Britain’s policy to engage with China where possible but also protect against risks.
