>Earlier, US Vice President JD Vance told delegates in Paris that too much regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) could “kill a transformative industry just as it’s taking off”.
He wouldn’t know transformative if it shit in his face….
>Vance told world leaders that AI was “an opportunity that the Trump administration will not squander” and said “pro-growth AI policies” should be prioritised over safety.
Sure, why would we care about safety anyway. What’s the worse that could happen anyway….

The UK actually making a good decision? These documents are not worth the paper they are written in with many countries but western countries at least try to follow them which just ends up holding us back and letting others get ahead.

This is not an opinion, but a fact.

US could have signed and Trump would still not follow it. But to them internal optics is #1 priority. They need ammo for their cult propaganda. Its a leadership cult.
UK I guess its whatever. US with Trump will ignore any ethics with AI development, and without US we are not able to force China and India to get in line.
The red necks in US just steered us all towards a technological christofaacist dystopia. Because of cost of living and jobs.
Fucking morons.

This is more or less just virtue signaling, but it also will be used against non-signatories in not so distant feature.

Read it. Not a UK or US resident but happy for them not signing it. Wonder how the east relates to that. AI is nowhere close to being “Terminator” sorts of levels and every AI doomer article from ‘ex-OpenAi employees’ seems just ingenious.
And, at least from the article, it seems so vague too. “Ethical” and ‘Inclusive’ are buzzwords in on itself. Worst case they gonna try to punch hobbyist and open source communities for training models and sharing stuff. Just think about how certain actors still.keep.trying. to do those weird surveillance laws in the EU.
I do acknowledge the issues with things like deepfake and electricity costs, but hampering progress instead of looking into solving the root cause (Better education for people to not trust everything they see and read online, more investment into solar, nuclear, and fusion) is not something I agree with.
But hey, while I do enjoy the perks of being an EU resident, they can red tape themselves further into irrelevance.

Yeah… good luck with that. And, so much about “autonomy”…

“Downing Street said the UK “hadn’t been able to agree all parts of the leaders’ declaration” and would “only ever sign up to initiatives that are in UK national interests” – but has not spelt out which parts of the communique the UK objected to.”
After the Bletchley declaration I wonder what the parts they disagreed with are.

Keir Starmer’s problem is that he thinks he can be friends with the US and the EU. I hope he finds out soon enough that that’s not possible and he should pursue relations with the EU. Fuck trump and the USA

So it’s either going to be so omnipotent and important ( just as water, energy, food) so it MUST be regulated – with continuous and upgradable regulatory framework
or
it’s just a buzz word from Silicon Valley and needs no regulation whatsoever.
Can’t be both.

The same day that UK the only big economy aiming to meet the Paris agreement targets on climate change.
What’s the point of signing agreements if people have zero intention to work to them?

Even if the US did sign anything, does anybody actually trust America to honor that deal? Just look at the number of agreements or declarations that America just ignored when it was convenient.

From the UK here:
This is actually a positive thing. Most significant breakthroughs in technology happen without the chains of restrictions. We’re setting ourselves up as a counter to the currently US dominated AI market as most companies specialising in AI tech will move to countries not part of the declaration to develop the AI. an EU ally having strong AI development focus could be a good thing
…Better if we rejoin the EU too….
