UK Warns Concentration Threatens National AI Security
In a written parliamentary answer to Labour MP Chris Bloore, Defence Minister Luke Pollard warned that concentration of advanced AI development in a small number of overseas jurisdictions could pose strategic risks to UK security and freedom of action. He said the government will address these through international cooperation, industry engagement and sustained domestic investment. The warning flags supply-chain and sovereignty vulnerabilities for defence and intelligence systems.
