It has also been renamed to “AI Action Summit”, dropping the all-important safety focus. Safety will be a minor part of the summit, only one out of five tracks. We've also heard that there are no plans to draft a treaty. > > The summit will be led by Anne Bouverot, who is dismissive of “alarmist discourse”, comparing AI with calculators. She compares AI safety concerns with Y2K concerns, she is certain that “AI is not going to replace us, but rather help us”. > > It seems increasingly unlikely that this summit will lead to the types of international regulations that we are calling for. Our politicians are sticking their heads in the sand, ignoring the weight of their responsibilities, choosing to focus on winning the capabilities race.
