Labour Party Representative Calls for Licensing and Regulation of AI Developers Similar to Pharmaceutical and Nuclear Industries

Lucy Powell, a digital spokesperson for the UK's Labour Party, has called for licensing and regulation of AI developers similar to the pharmaceutical, medical, or nuclear industries. Powell argues that large language models used in AI tools need to be regulated to mitigate risks and unintended consequences.

She believes that an interventionist government approach is necessary to keep up with the fast-moving technology. Meanwhile, Matt Clifford, the chair of the Advanced Research and Invention Agency, has warned that AI could threaten humans in as little as two years and called for policymakers to prioritize regulation and safety.
