Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government when they plan to launch a call for evidence on the risks of artificial intelligence to trust in information, as proposed in their consultation outcome published 6 February.

The Government recognises the need to both unlock the opportunities and address the potential risks of artificial intelligence.

As outlined in the AI white paper consultation response, government will shortly publish a Call for Evidence on the impact of AI on trust in information, to develop our understanding of this fast moving and nascent area of technological development, including possible mitigations.

This work is part of our programme to seek a range of expert views – including from researchers, academics, and civil society organisations with relevant expertise.
