This article seems to be missing the point somehow. The CDEI advisory board seem to have been set up with a time-boxed tenure, which has now passed. It's not some nefarious deal - the outgoing board even posted a blog about it on the official CDEI website https://cdei.blog.gov.uk/2023/09/26/championing-responsible-innovation-reflections-from-the-cdei-advisory-board/ https://cdei.blog.gov.uk/2023/09/26/championing-responsible-...

- seanhunter 3y agoThat's not the UK's independent AI advisory board, it's an advisory board to one specific govt body which is part of a specific govt deparment. Not 100% clear why having an independent advisory board is something to aspire to.

- seanhunter 3y agoThat definitely has value if the politicians subsequently listen to the advice. In the UK at the moment that is sadly unlikely.
- developer93 3y agoIn that case it's useless and disbanding it is sensible, no?
