I heard the UN Secretary General equally put out an urgent appeal that AI was a great threat. No one answered the issue of the chances of global regulation in this sector and the fear that in an environment which seems to be polarised, these technologies are almost being weaponised routinely to commit cybercrime and so on. Is anyone broaching that sort of arena? Open source technology might see this casually get into the hands of people with ill intent and there is a fear that there are some who will see this as a great opportunity to undermine a lot of global stability. I would be interested in where that debate is. How do we put in context the call by the UN Secretary General for something to be done urgently? He is head of the organisation you would think we would be looking to to deliver change in this arena.
