Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of existing AI regulatory frameworks; whether they are sufficient to govern advanced AI systems; and if not, what new institutional arrangements are being considered to address regulatory gaps.

Artificial intelligence is the defining opportunity of our generation, and the Government is taking action to harness its economic benefits for UK citizens. As set out in the AI Opportunities Action Plan, we believe most AI systems should be regulated at the point of use, with our expert regulators best placed to do so. Departments are working proactively with regulators to provide clear strategic direction and support them on their AI capability needs. Through well-designed and implemented regulation, we can fuel fast, wide and safe development and adoption of AI.
