Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the international declaration agreed at the AI Action Summit in Paris, and whether they intend to suggest any amendments to that declaration.

We have worked incredibly closely with the French team throughout the Summit. We agreed with much of the AI Action Summit Leaders’ Declaration and continue to work closely with international partners. However, we felt the declaration did not provide enough practical clarity on global governance, nor sufficiently address harder questions around national security and the challenge AI poses to it. We remain a very close partner to France on all aspects of AI, and an active and eager participant in all future AI Summits which were started at Bletchley Park in November 2023.
