Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government, following the announcement by the Prime Minister on 7 June regarding plans for the UK to host the first major global summit on AI safety, what steps they are taking to ensure that the conference includes appropriate representation from civil society, academia, and those who have experienced algorithmic harm.

The first major global summit on AI safety, hosted by the UK, will bring together key countries, as well as leading technology companies and researchers, to agree on the safety measures needed to evaluate and monitor the most significant risks emerging from the newest developments in AI technologies.

Decisions are ongoing regarding preparations for the Summit. We have received interest from multiple organisations including academia and civil society and we are currently exploring how best to ensure representation from these groups and others.
