The UK government has postponed its plans to regulate artificial intelligence, pushing a long-awaited AI bill's publication from Christmas to the summer. Initially intended to ensure that advanced AI models like ChatGPT would be tested by the UK's AI Security Institute, the delay comes amid a strategic shift to align more closely with the US, particularly under Trump's administration. Concerns over the attractiveness of the UK to AI companies have overshadowed plans for regulation, especially after Trump's rollback of previous initiatives aimed at ensuring AI safety.
Ministers have delayed the publication of a long-anticipated AI bill originally set before Christmas, now expected in Parliament only before summer, aligning with US actions.
The delay is due to concerns about maintaining the UK's attractiveness to AI companies in light of Trump's stance on regulation following Biden's efforts.
The government initially planned a short bill to address the risks posed by advanced AI models but has now put it on hold amid US regulatory dynamics.
The UK government chose not to sign the Paris declaration on AI regulation, conflicting with the efforts of 66 other countries, highlighting its strategic alliance with the US.
