Recommendation 13

The Government is not striking the right balance between innovation and risk. We appreciate that recent advances have required rapid security evaluations and we commend the AI Safety Summit as a significant achievement. But Government attention is shifting too far towards a narrow view of high-stakes AI safety. On its own, this will not drive the kind of widespread responsible innovation needed to benefit our society and economy. The Government must also recognise that long-term global leadership on AI safety requires a thriving commercial and academic sector to attract, develop and retain technical experts.
