People should not be worried about the impact of AI on jobs because education reforms will boost skills, Rishi Sunak has said. Speaking after the UK's first AI safety summit, the prime minister said the technology would improve the economy in the long term. He added that new tools should be seen as a "co-pilot" to help people at work, rather than replacing them. The government's job should be to improve training, he told reporters.

Mr Sunak said he recognised there was "anxiety" about the impact new AI tools could have on the workplace, but said it would enhance productivity over time. "We should look at AI much more as a co-pilot than something which is necessary going to replace someone's job. AI is a tool that can help almost anybody do their jobs better, faster, quicker. "My job, the government's job, is to make sure we have a world-class education system," he added. "That is my answer in a nutshell, that's why I don't want people to be worried, because we are building a world-class education system." Mr Sunak cited his recently-announced plan to introduce a new qualification for all school leavers in England, including some English and maths to 18. He also suggested efforts to improve technical training, and plans to boost adult education, would ensure that the UK could "reap the benefits of AI economically".

His comments came at a press conference following a two-day summit on artificial intelligence safety attended by 28 countries, including the US and China, alongside tech bosses and academics. Trade unions, which have complained about not being represented at the event, have called for stronger measures to ensure jobs are protected as AI technology evolves.

At the summit, hosted at Bletchley Park in Buckinghamshire, several leading technology companies agreed to allow governments to safety-test their next generation of AI models before they are deployed. The voluntary document was signed by 10 countries and the EU, including the UK, US, Singapore and Canada. China was not a signatory. In a statement, the UK government said it would work with the Alan Turing Institute, a research body, to assess possible risks such as the potential for bias and misinformation.

Mr Sunak said the testing regime would provide some "independent assurance" - adding that the firms developing new models cannot be expected to "make their own homework". His government has so far declined to announce legislation to regulate AI, arguing that existing regulators are best placed to mitigate the risks whilst the technology evolves. Mr Sunak told reporters that binding rules would "likely be necessary," but stressed that the technology was still evolving and it was necessary to ensure it is done in "the right way".

10. According to Mr. Sunak, why does there

need to be a testing regime for AI models?

1. Teresa Butler - Secondary School Teacher

My mum was a teacher, and when I was small, it was a little awkward having her teach in the same school I attended. But after I grew up and met some of her former students, I realised what a difference she had made in people's lives. I started out as a teacher's assistant, but one day I daringly stepped out of my place and tried out some innovative teaching techniques. The head teacher got to hear about it, and was so impressed that I moved on to teaching my own class. I really enjoy teaching at secondary level, because I find that teenagers are very engaging and we have some great discussions about modem issues in class.

2. Luisa Matthews - Office Administrator

All I wanted at seventeen was to keep from going to university like all my friends, so I took a management course and then went to work as an office manager in a small real estate company. In the beginning I was a little nervous about making decisions that would have an impact on the entire office, but my boss is a close friend and luckily had faith in me and my abilities. My friends who are still at university don't appreciate the fact that I have a lot of responsibility right now and that I supervise a large number of employees. They're always calling me to go out - to parties or for pizza, but I usually tum down their invitations because I have to get up early the next day to go to the office.

3. Gerald Bryant - Diving Instructor

 I am very interested in the field of marine biology and I devoted my younger years to researching and writing a book on the subject. I then went on to get my diving certificate. I started working in England as an instructor, but when I realised there was no real future for me there, I moved to the Caribbean. I started with a diving company in the British Virgin Islands, which was great, but I noticed that the equipment was somewhat outdated. When I pointed it out to my boss, he was so surprised that he immediately ordered new gear for all the instructors. I soon fell in love with the island lifestyle. I enjoy my job, as well as my time off, and now life is perfect.

4. Ashley Flores - Illustrator

After art school I really wanted to become a 'serious' artist, but I knew that I couldn't be sure of supporting myself financially if I did. Then Mum suggested I try book illustration. She's pretty wise and she soon convinced me. I started at a small publishing company that produces children's books. I love working there, but in the beginning I was hopelessly disorganised - I kept ordering the wrong types and amounts of supplies. I eventually got the hang of it, though. Recently I branched out into drawing a weekly cartoon for the local newspaper in my spare time, and I hope it will lead to more work of the same kind, perhaps with a national newspaper.

 5. Kenneth Steward - Jewellery Designer

I never imagined I would end up doing this kind of work, and I actually fell into it by accident. I wanted to buy my mother a brooch for her birthday, but I couldn't find one I liked, so I decided to design my own. Some of her friends saw it and liked it so much that I started to get requests on a regular basis for new designs. My mother likes to boast that her son is a designer, but I wonder what her friends would think if they knew that I haven't had any formal training. My brooch designs became so popular that local jewellery stores began calling me for advice on their own jewellery lines, which is how my new jewellery consulting company was born. That's growing rapidly, and I'm also planning to take on some people to help me so I can expand into mail-order jewellery.
