Sunak to Host AI Safety Summit Amid Concerns Over Lack of Global Leadership

Rishi Sunak is hosting an AI safety summit next week, but attendees remain unclear amid concerns over lack of top global leaders.

The summit at Bletchley Park is a personal project for Sunak to address risks of advancing AI technology.

Officials say waiting is not an option given the urgent need for answers; new AI models arriving soon are extremely powerful.

China was invited but its attendance remains uncertain. The summit will bring together countries, tech firms, and experts to discuss AI risks.

The summit likely won't produce concrete regulations yet, but may position the UK and US as leaders in AI governance.
