Their priorities are stimulating business, providing a competitive advantage, and supporting responsible innovation.<\/p>\n<p>The vision was first laid out in a policy paper last July. In the document, the government said it plans to<span>\u00a0build the \u201cmost pro-innovation regulatory environment in the world.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"c-richText__pullQuote\">\n<div class=\"c-richText__pullQuoteGradient\">\n<p class=\"c-richText__pullQuoteQuote\">\u201c<span>Regulation that\u2019s proportionate, light-touch and forward-looking is essential.<\/span>\n            <\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>Ministers noted that the UK ranks third in the world for number of academic journal citations, and received more investment in AI companies than France and Germany combined in 2021. The new regulatory<\/span><span>\u00a0environment, they hope, will further boost business use of AI, attract international investment, and nurture talent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<span>A regulatory framework that is proportionate, light-touch and forward-looking is essential to keep pace with the speed of developments in these technologies,\u201d <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/establishing-a-pro-innovation-approach-to-regulating-ai\/establishing-a-pro-innovation-approach-to-regulating-ai-policy-statement\">said<\/a> then-digital secretary Nadine Dorries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Notably, the British government has publicy criticised the EU\u2019s AI regulation.\u00a0In a December <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/news\/uk-tech-sector-retains-1-spot-in-europe-and-3-in-world-as-sector-resilience-brings-continued-growth\">press release<\/a> celebrating the UK tech sector\u2019s position as the most valuable in Europe, the country\u2019s \u201cless centralised approach\u201d was spotlighted for praise.<\/p>\n<p>This approach will leave regulation up to existing organisations \u2014 such as Ofcom, which regulates broadcasting \u2014 rather than a single overarching body. As a result,\u00a0rules can be tailored to different sectors and amended over time. But this flexibility entails certain risks.<\/p>\n<p>Critics fear the sectoral focus will lead some areas to fall through the gaps. There are also concerns about potentially conflicting rules, and existing regulators\u00a0monitoring AI without sufficient expertise.<\/p>\n<p><span>There are currently no plans to back the plan with new laws. Instead, regulators will be guided by core principles, such as safety, transparency, and fairness.\u00a0 <\/span><span>This could reduce arduous obligations, but detractors warn it will increase AI risks.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"c-richText__pullQuote\">\n<div class=\"c-richText__pullQuoteGradient\">\n<p class=\"c-richText__pullQuoteQuote\">\u201cIt\u2019s clear they\u2019re looking for comparative strength.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The proposals for \u201clighter touch\u201d options, meanwhile,<span>\u00a0include guidance, voluntary measures, and creating sandboxes. The government hopes this lures businesses to the UK.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s clear from the tone and what the government\u2019s saying that they\u2019re looking for comparative strength on AI \u2014 and the EU is the most proximate comparator, by geography and by market,\u201d\u00a0 Joe Jones, Director of Research and Insights at <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/iapp.org\/\">the International Association of Privacy Professionals<\/a>, told TNW.<\/p>\n<p>The EU\u2019s\u00a0legislation takes a broader approach. A new body, the European AI Board, will oversee the framework, with member states able to create their own enforcement bodies.<\/p>\n<p>Uses of AI will be categorised into different risk levels. Systems with the highest risks could be prohibited, while less risky ones would have minimal requirements.<\/p>\n<p>As is the case with the GDPR, rule-breakers could face heavy penalties. Violations would be punishable by fines of up to \u20ac30 million or 6% of global turnover.<\/p>\n<p>Further amendments are expected to come. The EU\u2019s AI Act still has to work its way through a lengthy legislative process, while the UK\u2019s white paper on the rules has been delayed.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, both regulators are searching for the\u00a0elusive balance sought from all tech legislation: reducing risks without stifling innovation. Their priorities, however, have diverged.<\/p>\n<p>The EU has placed heavy weight on safety, while the UK has emphasised the business case. Their choices could shape the continent\u2019s AI landscape for years to come.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
