This November the UK will welcome leading nations to the historic @BletchleyPark for the first global summit on AI safety.
AI transcends borders, and working with key international figures to agree global safeguards will allow us to realise this technology’s enormous potential.
On 1-2 November 2023, governments, AI companies and experts from around the work will meet at @BletchleyPark for crucial talks on the safe and responsible development of AI.
AI has the potential to revolutionise the way we live, but we must also minimise its risks.

Over the years, our disclosure regime has evolved to reflect evolving risks & investor needs. I think companies & investors alike would benefit if info about how issuers are managing growing cybersecurity risks were required in a consistent, comparable, & decision-useful manner.

We human beings have a tendency to over-rationalise the past, over-dramatise the present and underestimate the future. In trying to avoid all three, here is a 10 point world on how I see the WORLD two weeks after the Russian attack on Ukraine.

Today, @POTUS signed an Executive Order on crypto-assets. I look forward to collaborating with colleagues across the government to achieve important public policy goals: protecting investors & consumers, guarding against illicit activity, & helping ensure financial stability.
