In preparation for this week's AI Summit in the UK, Founders Forum Group and Tech Nation brought together a group of AI founders. The meeting resulted in a letter with four impactful actions the UK Government should take in order to support AI successes. These recommendations were shared with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on October 28th, 2023, but hold true for other European governments as well. Our CEO, Peter Sarlin, is one of the founders who have signed the letter.

As the letter states, "It is now widely accepted that AI will have an even more significant impact on the world than computers and in a far shorter time.", it is worth sharing these recommended actions far and wide:

1. Lead the world by example – widely adopt AI products and services across Government Departments to drive productivity, expertise and growth. Favour contracts over grants.
2. Safely open national datasets to maximise their value before it is eroded through inaction.
3. Upskill existing outcomes-focused regulators with AI proficiency, supplement them where necessary, and avoid stifling innovation.
4. Cultivate the AI startup ecosystem with incentives, support and access to AI talent.

We are seeing more and more conversations and questions that aim to cut through the hype surrounding AI. These are the types of conversations we enjoy participating in.

In this op-ed for Tekniikka&Talous, our CEO Peter Sarlin highlights several key factors in terms of generating value with AI. First and foremost, AI should be at the core of digital products and services, improving the collaboration between humans and machines. As open source-based large language models are democratizing access to LLMs, it is also important to understand when to build something in-house and when to acquire it from a partner.

Rather than a magic wand, AI is a powerful tool to innovate and create value in products, and that through long-term commitment ensures a company's ability to stay competitive.

How do you navigate through the hype to create actual value with AI? That was one of the big questions during yesterday's fireside chat. 

With today's conversational user interfaces, powered by LLMs, the opportunities for product innovations are significant. We believe one of the best avenues towards creating value is through highly specialized LLMs that are at the core of your digital products. The more they are used, the better they get. At the end of the day whether or not to include AI in products is a question of staying competitive.

Thank you to the event organizers, Krogerus and Teknologiateollisuus - Technology Industries of Finland, Saara Leino for moderating the fireside chat with our CEO Peter Sarlin, and to the active audience who provided many good questions.

Last week Silo AI CEO & co-founder Peter Sarlin participated in a roundtable with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, as well as a roundtable hosted by Founders Forum in partnership with the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) ahead of the UK's AI Safety Summit next month. Minister Paul Scully was responsible for leading the insightful discussion.

In order to have needed guardrails without stifling product innovation, one key element that Peter emphasized was the importance of outcome and usecase-specific regulation, rather than  trying to regulate AI in general.

Discussions such as these are needed on many levels of both civil society and policy making in order to increase the understanding of AI technologies, what can be achieved with them, and to align the discussion with perspectives from all sides of the table. 

Big thanks to Brent Hoberman and Founders Forum Group for organizing, and fellow participants Adam Liska (Glyphic), Angie Ma (Faculty), Aymeric Zhuo (agemo(CodeWords)), Ben Brooks (Stability AI), Ben Fielding (Gensyn), Conrad Wolfram (Wolfram), Heba Bevan, OBE (UtterBerry LTD), Henry Ajder (Latent Space), Jake P.

Walker II (Klu.ai), Thomas Hoegh (Arts Alliance), Tom Graham (Metaphysic.ai), Victor Riparbelli (Synthesia), William Tunstall-Pedoe FREng (Unlikely AI) for good discussions!
