On August 31, 2023, a significant milestone was achieved with the publication of the Governance of Artificial Intelligence: Interim Report by the Science, Innovation and Technology Committee of the UK government (the Interim Report).

The Interim Report acknowledges this imperative and lays the foundation for policymakers and key industry players to address these issues.
