World leaders must 'get serious' about AI and its risk, experts warn at summit

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will co-host a virtual meeting of world leaders with South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol on Tuesday to open the summit, where he will say that managing the risks posed by artificial intelligence is "one of the most profound responsibilities" faced by governments.
