Officials at the UK\u2019s Department of Science, Innovation and Technology have started drafting legislation to regulate AI models, Bloomberg<\/em> reports. It\u2019s unclear how any future regulation will intersect with the UK\u2019s already-extant AI Safety Institute, which already conducts safety tests of the most powerful AI models. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, the UK does not officially have a policy preventing companies from releasing AI models that have not been evaluated for safety. Neither does it have the power to pull any existing model from the market if it violates safety standards or to fine a company over those violations.\u00a0(In comparison, the European Union\u2019s AI Act can impose fines if AI companies violate certain safety benchmarks.) <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has previously said there\u2019s no need to \u201crush to regulate\u201d AI models and platforms.\u00a0Meanwhile, Bloomberg <\/em>reports, other government officials have raised the possibility of amending the UK\u2019s copyright rules to strengthen the opt-out option for training datasets.\u00a0Any potential bill is still a ways off, according to Bloomberg.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n[ad_2]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
