The US and UK team up to boost AI safety

Right now, several governments are trying to find a way of mitigating the risks associated with AI technology. So far, their efforts have all pretty much been separate. However, the US and the UK are teaming up to test the safety of AI models.

So far, there’s been very little collaboration between different geographic locations when it comes to AI. The US has its own way of doing things, the UK has its own way, China has its own way, Etc. At this point, we have no idea if this sort of fragmentation will have a detrimental effect on our efforts to keep AI safe. This is just one of the things we’re going to have to figure out the hard way.

The US and UK are working together to test AI safety

This seems to be the first major collaboration between governments across seas to help assess the dangers of AI. Over in the UK, there is an AI Safety Institute, and there is also one for me in the US. Well, these two institutes will work together to test “the most advanced AI models.” This is an official partnership, as both governments signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).

So, both institutes will work together and share information regarding their studies. Along with that, it appears that the two institutes will also want to perform tests on a publicly available AI model. We’re not sure what model this will be, but we’re sure that it will be a model that will affect many users. We don’t know what sort of tests these institutes will perform. However, we’re pretty sure that they will be standard red teaming tests.

This is the first collaboration such as this regarding AI, and hopefully, it’s not the last. The US and the UK are planning on collaborating with other countries to help test AI.

This is probably the best method

We’re all used to different countries and continents doing things differently. However, when it comes to AI technology, that may not be the best approach. Regardless of geographic location, AI poses the same threat. The best thing would be for countries to band together and standardize AI technology across the board. Coming up with a global standard for AI technology that is properly regulated could ensure that AI does not get out of control.
