The United Kingdom plans to make artificial intelligence a central focus of its G20 presidency in 2027, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham said, according to NDTV. Burnham said the G20 would work on developing safety standards for artificial intelligence during the UK presidency. The supplied material does not specify which standards are being considered, how the work would be organised or whether the G20 members have already agreed to the proposal.

It also does not identify the specific risks the standards would address or provide a timetable for negotiations. No reactions from other G20 members were included. Burnham’s statement sets out a proposed focus for the UK’s future presidency: international work on AI safety.

The details available do not go beyond that stated aim and the planned involvement of the G20.
