Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the potential the Laboratory for AI Security Research could offer for both the public and private sector.

We are committed to building an AI sector that can scale globally and boosting responsible AI adoption across the economy.

We are aware that AI provides an increased threat to national security. DSIT is working closely with partners to understand those risks, and are using that knowledge to shape policy-making. AISI’s collaboration with the Laboratory for AI Security Research and the National Cyber Security Centre aims to understand the interplay of cybersecurity and AI security - coordinating where there are shared objectives.

This collaboration enables progress towards ensuring effective global AI governance whilst capitalising on the benefits of AI.
