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".
