Update
What changedThe challenge has been delivered in person. The leading figures of the artificial intelligence industry gathered in Scotland to hear King Charles III press them on keeping their inventions under control, Bloomberg reports. What was framed earlier in the day as a royal plan is now a plea that has actually been put to the room.
The guest list does some of the arguing on its own. The report names Jensen Huang of NVIDIA, Google DeepMind's Demis Hassabis and OpenAI chief financial officer Sarah Friar among those present. People of that seniority do not cross the border for a photo call.
Huang also called for AI safety tests, per the same report. That is a concrete position from the man whose company supplies much of the compute the field runs on, and it lands while the labs are still arguing in public about how fast the frontier should move. Whether the call hardens into tests anyone can inspect, or remains a well-placed sentiment, is the question the day left open.
