Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what assessment she has made of the potential implications for her policies of the hacking of Hugging Face by collaborating agents, and what plans he has for the further development of AISI and other UK government AI structures.

The Hugging Face incident represents a real-world example of why research to understand the risks posed by advanced AI is so important. The Government takes these risks extremely seriously. I am working closely with Ministerial colleagues to ensure that the lessons from recent incidents inform the continued development of the UK's cyber-security framework and the AI Security Institute will continue to work with model developers and other partners to better understand AI capabilities and improve safeguards and control.
