Whose AI is it anyway? Data, sovereignty, and the geopolitics of intelligence
Speakers
When Anthropic's Fable 5 was ordered offline worldwide just three days after its release, it sharpened a question artificial intelligence increasingly raises: who's in control?
Most governments talk about 'sovereign' AI and some are now building it, but what does it really mean for a country, an institution, or a citizen to have a say over those systems? What happens when that control slips?
Join the LSE Data Science Institute and King's Institute for Artificial Intelligence for a public panel bringing together leading voices to explore the technology, politics and security of AI and data sovereignty, and what's at stake for the UK.
Followed by a drinks reception.
