Comment by Rishi Sunak
Former UK prime minister
Until now the only people testing the safety of new AI models have been the very companies developing it. We shouldn’t rely on them to mark their own homework, as many of them agree. Today we’ve reached a historic agreement, with governments and AI companies working together to test the safety of their models before and after they are released.

Verified: This is from then-UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in early November 2023 at the conclusion of the AI Safety Summit at Bletchley Park, announcing the agreement among governments and frontier AI companies for pre- and post-deployment safety testing. The ukauthority URL was blocked by WebFetch, but the "mark their own homework" phrasing and the broader announcement are widely documented (gov.uk, Wikipedia, Axios, TechCrunch, etc.). Year 2023 is correct. The vote "for" on "Mandate third-party audits for major AI systems" aligns - Sunak is explicitly arguing AI safety testing should not be left only to the companies themselves.
