At the Paris summit, nations agreed on AI sustainability and cybersecurity, but the United States and United Kingdom did not support the declaration.

Despite their absence, a communique signed by France, China, India, and Canada emphasized ethical, safe, and sustainable AI development.

UK spokesperson said it lacked focus on global governance and national security.

Meanwhile, US Vice President JD Vance criticized Europe’s regulatory stance, warning against excessive restrictions and partnerships with authoritarian regimes.

Some campaign groups warned the UK’s decision could harm its reputation in AI safety and ethics.
