residents injersey have been out assessing the damage — these pictures are from west hill where uprooted trees and branches are blocking the roads. people there have told the bbc there are still very strong winds in the area. let's get more from graham satchell. storm ciaran hit the channel islands with a bang, thunder and lightning and massive hailstones. the power of the storm, remarkable. winds reached more than 100 miles an hour, ripping roofs from buildings. this terrifying moment was caught on a baby monitor. the woman grabs her baby and makes her escape. the emergency services injersey said they responded to hundreds of calls overnight. they worked through horrendous conditions to clear roads and rescue people. there's been a lot of structural damage, a lot of roofs and chimneys down, trees down, obviously, a lot of roads are blocked, there is a lot of debris on the roads. at first light, people ventured out to assess the damage. there are trees down all over the island. some buildings have been almost completely destroyed. the power of the wind has blown walls down. that was my car, evie's car, big, big tree. in some places, it is a scene of utter devastation. charlie's car was parked here and it's moved over there. with the extensive damage to buildings and properties, more than a0 islanders have been evacuated to local hotels. terry and angela had a lucky escape after their chimney came through their roof and fell on them in bed. i thought it was a lot of lightning, then the next thing, everything came down on top of me. so, i suppose i was lucky because i did manage to pull my legs out. and she wasjelly, that's what my wife was like. i was shaking. jersey is still being battered. all flights and ferries have been cancelled, schools are closed. not since the great storm of 1987 have the channel islands seen something as bad as this. graham satchell, bbc news. we can speak now to alex burkill —— who's a meteorologist. where have we seen the most

seen in recent weeks, that is likely to cause further issues. in terms of advice, you always have to be careful and allow extra time forjourneys if you are planning to travel during periods of severe

showers around but it will be drier and less windy for the majority. however in saturday, another spell of wet and windy weather that will push its way up from the south—west. that system that brings

they show that we have both the political will and the capability to control this technology and secure its benefits for the long—term. we have achieved this in four specific ways. until this in four specific ways. until this week, the world did not even have a shared understanding of the risks so our first step was to have open and inclusive conversation to seek that shared understanding. we analysed the latest available evidence on everything from social harms like buyers and misinformation to the risk of misuse, through to the extreme risks of even losing control of ai the extreme risks of even losing control of a! completely. yesterday, we agreed and published the first ever international statement about the nature of all of those risks. it was signed by every single nation represented at the summit, covering all continents across the globe, and including the united states and china. some said we should not even invited china. 0thers china. some said we should not even invited china. others said we could never get an agreement with them. both were wrong. a serious strategy for al both were wrong. a serious strategy for a! safety has to begin with engaging all the world's leading ai powers. and all of them have signed the bletchley park. second, we must ensure that our shared understanding keeps pace with the rapid deployment and develop and of ai. that is why last week i proposed a truly expert global panel to publish a state of ai global panel to publish a state of a! science report. today at the summit, the whole international community has agreed. this idea is inspired by the way the intergovernmental panel on climate change was set up to reach international science consensus. with the support of the un secretary—general, every country has committed to nominate experts. i am delighted to announce that prizewinner and godfather of ai delighted to announce that prizewinner and godfather of a! has agreed to chair the production of the inaugural report. third, until now the only people testing the safety of new a! models have been the very companies developing it. that must change. so, building on the here shimmer process and the google partnership on al, like—minded governments have today reached a landmark agreement. we will work together on testing the safety of new a! models before they are released. this partnership is based around a series of principles which are set out the responsibilities we share and it is made possible by the decision i have taken, along with vice president kamala harris for the partitioned american governments to establish world leading ai american governments to establish world leading a! safety institutes with the public sector capability to test the most advanced frontier models. in that spirit, i very much welcome the agreement of the companies here today to deepen the access that the uk has their models. drawing on the expertise of some of the most respected and knowledgeable ai experts in the world, our safety institute will work to build our evaluations process in time to assess the next generation of models before they are deployed next year. finally, fulfilling the vision we have set to keep ai finally, fulfilling the vision we have set to keep a! safe is not the work of any single summit. the uk is proud to have brought the world together and hosted the first summit but it requires an ongoing international process to stay ahead of the curve on the science and to see through all the collaboration of that we have begun today. so we have agreed that bletchley park should be the first of a series of international safety summits with both korea and france agreeing to host further summits next year. the late stephen hawking once said a! is slightly to be the best or worst thing to happen to humanity. if we can sustain the collaboration that we have fostered over these last two days, i profoundly believe that we can make it the best because safely harnessing this technology could eclipse anything we have ever known and if in time history proves that today we began to seize that price, then we will have written a new chapter, worthy of its place in the story of bletchley park and more importantly, bequeathed an extraordinary legacy of hope and opportunity for our children and generations to come. thank you. we will take some questions from the

safe. we have announced the creation of the ai i announced the creation of the a! safety institute, backed by a significant amount of funding, it builds on the work of the founding of the task force we set up a while ago and not only has it funded, it is also attracting the best and brightest scientists and researchers from across the world to work there because in order to regulate this technology, to make sure it is safe, we have to have the capability to understand what these models are capable of to do that safety testing and evaluation. i think the critical thing that we have agreed today which is a truly landmark agreement, is that we will be able to do that in advance of these models being released. that is a new step but was necessary. people have called for it and when i was speaking to many of you last week, it was raised then and it may have been raised by you, tom, but i am pleased to say we have delivered on that. in order to make sure people can be made safe, we need to get in there in advance to do the testing and that is what the safety institute will do. we haven't got time to go into all the different things it will do but in the broad sense, ourjob in government is to have the expertise in testing before our citizens are exposed to them to make sure they are safe. we will now be able to do that and we are developing the expertise to do that is a range of different methodologies that are used to deliver that but fundamentally, people should be reassured, not only do we have the tools and capabilities being developed here at a rate faster than any other country, we now have the agreement to do the testing before the models are released to the public and that is something i think this summit will look back on and say is a terrific achievement, a landmark achievement. next to the telegraph. t landmark achievement. next to the teleu-rah. .,, ., ., landmark achievement. next to the teleu-rah. ., ., ., ., telegraph. i was going to

about what he might say? elon musk is someone who has, for a long time, spoken about al. he is an investor, an entrepreneur and has developed a! companies and is one of the leading actors in al. it is important that he was engaged in the summit and i am delighted that he was attending and participating yesterday and it was a decade ago that he first started talking about some of the risks that al could pose and the importance of governance and others doing what was necessary to mitigate against those. rather than focus on anyone personality, i think the achievement of this summit, and i the achievement of this summit, and i pay the achievement of this summit, and i pay tribute to michelle for her work over the last few months to bring this together, for us to have assembled over 100 of the leading ai nations, leading companies developing the technology, and then experts from industry, academia and civil society together in one place for the first time to have this conversation, i think that is truly an extra ordinary achievement. it has not happened before anywhere. that is the uk demonstrating global leadership to make it happen. it is not about any one person but a collection that we have brought together and as you can see, in my remarks, not only has it been a good and thoughtful conversation, it has led to some very concrete outcomes that will ensure that we all can enjoy the benefits of ai, which are extraordinary in how it is going to change our lives in health care and education, the economy, but do so in a way that is safe. this summit on the outcomes from it will ensure that that is the direction we are now on and that is because of the leadership that the uk has shown and played in that has been recognised by everyone who was at this summit. you can see the success in the fact that notjust south korea but france are now hosting the next two summits so i think we should take that as another mark of success for us, that others are one do the same thing and continue this conversation. next, we go to the bbc. continue this conversation. next, we go to the bbc-— go to the bbc. your focus on the summit here _ go to the bbc. your focus on the
