Comment by Rishi Sunak
Former UK prime minister
We’re a long way from anyone establishing an IAEA equivalent for AI, those things are long into the distance. [...] But in the first instance just talking through this with like-minded countries is a sensible thing.
We will all benefit from hearing and talking to each other in conversation with businesses themselves.

AI Unverifiable
Source URL (the-independent.com article on Sunak/IAEA/AI, July 2023) is blocked from WebFetch. Web search confirms the quote and attribution: in early July 2023, PM Rishi Sunak said 'We're a long way from anyone establishing an IAEA equivalent for AI, those things are long into the distance' and emphasized starting with talks among like-minded countries. The vote (Against 'Establish a UN-led body to oversee compute-intensive AI') is defensible given Sunak preferred an IPCC-style expert panel over an IAEA-style regulator and viewed any such body as far off; while his position is somewhat nuanced (closer to 'not now' than outright opposition), 'against' is a reasonable mapping. Marking ai_unverifiable per protocol because the source page itself cannot be fetched.
