In this week’s episode of Keeping an Eye on the Geopolitical Ball, Jamie Shea, Senior Fellow at Friends of Europe, reflects on the world’s first ever Artificial Intelligence Safety Summit convened near London. The Summit saw the three blocks, the EU, US and China, come together, with participation from European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, US Vice President Kamala Harris and China’s Vice Minister of Technology Wu Zhaohui. With new technologies posing risks such as cyber-attacks, deep fakes and election interference, the aim of the Summit was to start a global conversation on the regulation of AI. To that end, Jamie outlines five key principles that should guide this effort going forward.
