🌐 Exciting developments in the #AI realm 🚀 A groundbreaking collaboration took place as both #UK 🇬🇧 and #US 🇺🇸 inked the world's debut Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on artificial intelligence. This historic event unfolded in Washington on Monday, with UK science minister @michelledonelan and US commerce secretary @SecRaimondo at the helm. The strategic move sets the stage for overseeing the #ArtificialIntelligence domain, an ever-expanding sector hailed as “the defining technology of our generation”. This mutual agreement positions the allied nations as pioneers in exploring how to evaluate and diminish risks tied to the emergence of AI models. It marks a proactive stride towards promoting ethical AI advancements and shielding against potential hazards. #news #tech #technology #safety 🤖

While many agencies in the #Government have started to scope #AI projects, significant value has yet to be delivered by AI - Smart Nation Singapore. Two key gaps were identified: 🔰 the lack of awareness of major AI use cases and 🔰 the lack of ops-tech capabilities to initiate AI projects by public officers. #artificialintelligence #generativeai #LLMs #aigovernance #govtech #digitaltransformation #digitaldisruption #digitaltransformation Paidi O Reilly Prof. Dr. Ingrid Vasiliu-Feltes Martin Moeller Aaron Lax Richard Turrin Antonio Grasso Imtiaz Adam Irene Lyakovetsky🎧🎙 Dinis Guarda Ian Jones Dr. Martha Boeckenfeld Nicolas Babin Mike Flache Giuliano Liguori Dr. Marcell Vollmer Birgul COTELLI, Ph.

U.S. and U.K. Forge AI Safety Partnership Amid Global Technological Concerns. The United States and Britain have officially joined forces through a new science of AI safety partnership to address the challenges and potentials of artificial intelligence (AI). This strategic alliance, cemented by Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo and British Technology Secretary Michelle Donelan in Washington, aims to pioneer advanced AI model testing protocols. Stemming from commitments made at the AI Safety Summit in Bletchley Park last November, this collaboration underscores a mutual dedication to mitigating national security risks and societal concerns posed by next-generation AI technologies. As global leaders in establishing government-led AI safety institutes, both nations are set to undertake joint testing exercises and explore international cooperatives to ensure a safe transition into the AI-dominated future. This partnership heralds a new era of technological governance, where the immense capabilities of AI are harnessed responsibly to tackle some of the world's most pressing challenges while firmly grasping the reins of associated risks.  #AISafetyPartnership #USUKTechCollab #ArtificialIntelligence #GlobalTechLeaders #AISecurity

I comment below on the passing of yesterday's #us sponsored resolution at the #unitednations on the need for a common approach given the potential benefits and dangers of #artificialintelligence. As with much #un activity its significance is largely symbolic though it shows that everybody is waking up to the importance of the latest #technology revolution. What concrete regulations for #ai America and the #uk eventually settle for will have more of an impact.

This event is wao! I mean missing this event means missing a great opportunity. if you can see and read this post, do yourself an awesome favour by saving the date. @#EliteGlobalAITraining#Event#
