Comment by Baroness Lloyd of Effra
Liz Lloyd; UK Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for AI and Digital Government (DSIT)
My own view, after talking with colleagues in the AI Security Institute and the Alan Turing Institute, is that a moratorium would be unenforceable. Instead, I support the proposal made this week by the noble Baroness, Lady Harding, to set up a commission to investigate the ethical aspects of general ASI.

Quote verified via web search (hansard.parliament.uk and the parallelparliament mirror both returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but search results confirm the content from the official Hansard record of the 29 Jan 2026 House of Lords "Superintelligent AI" debate — the primary source). Baroness Lloyd of Effra (UK Under-Secretary of State for AI/DSIT) stated a moratorium would be unenforceable and supported Baroness Harding's proposal for a commission to investigate the ethical aspects of general ASI, with references to the AI Security Institute and Alan Turing Institute. Year 2026 correct. Her "against" vote on "Ban superintelligence development until safety consensus is reached" aligns, as she opposes a moratorium in favor of a commission.
