Review & consider the role of agentic AI in Defence, Security & Public Services

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 19 February 2026

There's no dedicated legal framework for agentic AI under UK law. It seems the government prefers adapting existing legislation to creating new AI-specific laws. The pressure to innovate is real but the government must consider if agentic AI is the right system for the job, and its governance role. AI agents are tools and agentic AI is the system that uses those tools to think, decide and act independent of human oversight. The government must address any risks like: data leaks, hallucinations, compliance failures, misleading content, reinforcing systemic inequities and distorting decision-making. While protecting democratic integrity, economic stability, human relationships, and societal well-being. As capabilities grow, so does the need for careful governance, security and oversight, for any use of agentic AI in critical National Infrastructure, Public Services, National Defence and highly regulated environments. The government should review how to address the aforementioned risks and ensure compliance is built in from the start.

Ban AI usage in education by teachers and students

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 18 February 2026

To impose a consequence or discouragement for teachers who are using AI to educate, provide feedback and mark students work. Encourage educational lessons on the harms behind AI and when it should be used. Give records to students who are found to be repeatedly using it in their education. Many teachers across educational institutions are using AI to mark, provide feedback and teach students. We believe this entirely unsettles the system behind education that promotes students to do better and prepare them for work from someone who knows them personally and what would aid their work. Similarly I find many schools and colleges to be using AI imagery to promote their institution. This is a clear missed opportunity as many have groups of fine art students who need work experience.

Make a mandatory ‘no ai’ logo for products and companies

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 17 February 2026

The use of ai has become widespread and more often than not, people will accidentally buy a product which uses ai as it can be hard to spot. By introducing this, people would be more encouraged to buy products and it would help people of all walks of life detect ai much more efficiently. Furthermore, I have seen an example of this working. One creator had put a no ai logo on their product and majority of the feedback was people saying they would be more encouraged to buy the product despite them not having any real interest in it. This ‘no ai’ logo would bring back life to packing and designing and would make ‘art’, art again.

Make it illegal for doorbell footage to be used by companies for AI training

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 17 February 2026

Make it illegal for companies to use doorbell or home CCTV footage to train AI on recognisable people without permission. Only footage that is fully anonymised, with strict limits on use and storage, regular checks, and fines for breaking the rules should be allowed for this use. People can be filmed by doorbell cameras as they walk down their own streets, then that footage can be used to by the company who made the doorbell camera to build AI tools which those filmed may never have consented to. We think that this is unfair and undermines trust in both technology and neighbours. In our view home security should protect homes, not turn the public into unpaid test data, and we do not think the law has kept up. Parliament should set clear limits so people’s faces, movements and daily routines cannot be used for AI training without real permission and proper safeguards.

Question 13035 — télécommunications

France · National Assembly · 17 February 2026

Mme Prisca Thevenot attire l'attention de Mme la ministre déléguée auprès du ministre de l'économie, des finances et de la souveraineté industrielle, énergétique et numérique, chargée de l'intelligence artificielle et du numérique, sur les difficultés structurelles et désormais chroniques rencontrées dans le cadre du déploiement et de la maintenance des réseaux de fibre optique sur plusieurs communes des Hauts-de-Seine. Depuis 2022, de nombreux administrés, associations de riverains et élus locaux ont alerté Mme la députée, non plus sur des dysfonctionnements ponctuels, mais sur les limites profondes du modèle économique et organisationnel actuellement en vigueur. Interventions inachevées ou non conformes, malfaçons récurrentes au niveau des armoires de rue et des chambres de tirage, reprises tardives, dégradations des raccordements existants : ces désordres témoignent moins de défaillances isolées que d'un problème systémique. La fragmentation des responsabilités entre opérateurs d'infrastructure, opérateurs commerciaux et chaînes de sous-traitance successives conduit à une dilution manifeste des responsabilités, au détriment de la qualité du service rendu aux usagers et sans réel levier d'action pour les collectivités territoriales, pourtant sollicitées quotidiennement sur ces sujets. La situation observée dans la commune de Vaucresson illustre de manière particulièrement préoccupante ces dérives. Alors que seulement 55 % du parc est actuellement raccordé, les difficultés rencontrées sont déjà nombreuses et persistantes. Cette situation interroge directement la soutenabilité du dispositif actuel : si des fragilités structurelles apparaissent à ce stade du déploiement, la capacité du modèle en place à absorber le raccordement de la moitié restante du parc pose question, d'autant plus que les raccordements à venir seront les plus complexes. L'analyse des causes de ces dysfonctionnements met en lumière le rôle central du modèle économique de rémunération des prestataires, fondé principalement sur l'acte de raccordement. Ce mode de rémunération crée des incitations à des pratiques inacceptables : interventions réalisées dans l'urgence, branchements non conformes, débranchement d'usagers existants pour en raccorder de nouveaux, absence de remontée des anomalies et atteintes à l'intégrité des infrastructures. Il en résulte une instabilité chronique du réseau, une dégradation accélérée des équipements et une perte de confiance durable des usagers. Les mécanismes de contrôle actuellement mis en œuvre, y compris certaines expérimentations locales, telles que la sécurisation physique des armoires ou l'usage de solutions technologiques innovantes, se révèlent à ce stade insuffisamment efficaces. Dans ce contexte, plusieurs élus locaux s'interrogent sur la nécessité de faire évoluer en profondeur l'organisation actuelle. À titre d'exemple, une piste mérite d'être examinée : le renforcement du rôle des opérateurs d'infrastructure, qui pourraient se voir confier, au-delà de l'installation et de l'entretien, la mission de raccordement jusqu'au client final, les opérateurs commerciaux conservant un rôle centré sur la commercialisation et la relation avec l'abonné. Une telle évolution permettrait de clarifier la chaîne de responsabilité, de limiter les effets pervers de la sous-traitance en cascade et de garantir une meilleure qualité et traçabilité des interventions. Alors que la fibre optique constitue désormais une infrastructure essentielle à la vie économique, sociale et administrative des territoires, il apparaît indispensable d'ouvrir une réflexion de fond sur l'adéquation du modèle économique actuel avec les exigences de qualité, de continuité et de fiabilité du service public numérique. Elle souhaiterait donc connaître la position du Gouvernement sur ces enjeux et savoir si une évolution du cadre réglementaire et organisationnel du déploiement et de la maintenance des réseaux de fibre optique est envisagée, en lien étroit avec les collectivités territoriales et les autorités de régulation.

Question 12909 — défense

France · National Assembly · 17 February 2026

M. Hadrien Clouet attire l'attention de Mme la ministre des armées et des anciens combattants sur l'avenir du système de combat aérien du futur (SCAF), symbole théorique de la coopération franco-allemande, mais exemple pratique d'intérêts divergents et d'enlisement diplomatique. Ainsi, planifié conjointement depuis 2017, puis élargi à l'Espagne, le SCAF est dans une impasse totale, malgré un budget global de 100 milliards d'euros et son importance stratégique. Les accords prévoyaient des plateformes aériennes interconnectées, des drones, un cloud tactique avec de l'intelligence artificielle, ainsi que le développement d'un avion de combat commun pour la France et l'Allemagne, remplaçant le Rafale français et l'Eurofighter allemand à l'horizon 2040. Cependant, malgré les 3 milliards d'euros dépensés jusqu'à présent, le contrat pour la prochaine phase n'a pas été conclu en raison de divergences majeures et de visions contraires sur la répartition des responsabilités, le mode de pilotage du projet ainsi que sur l'architecture et la réalisation du prototype. Plusieurs forces industrielles allemandes appellent même à cesser la coopération avec Dassault car cette entreprise nationale refuse, à raison, de laisser piller les brevets et le savoir-faire aéronautique français. Réalistes, les syndicalistes d'IG Metall souhaitent cesser la coopération SCAF sur le modèle unifié d'avion et en développer deux différents. Malgré les réaffirmations récentes des responsables politiques français et allemands quant à leur volonté de mener à terme le projet SCAF, l'absence de solution aux divergences actuelles et l'incertitude sur le calendrier montrent que le partenariat est caduque la poursuite de ce partenariat. Le contrat pour la phase 2, initialement prévu fin 2025, n'a pas été conclu. Selon des informations médiatiques parues début février 2026, le gouvernement fédéral allemand souhaite en réalité rejoindre le programme concurrent GCAP ( Global Combat Air Programme ) mené par le gouvernement italien de Mme Meloni, ainsi que le Royaume-Uni et le Japon - un contre-projet atlantiste. Dans un contexte géopolitique marqué par les agressions étasuniennes à l'égard de pays souverains, sa menace sur le Groenland et le risque d'un accord sans consultation des populations en Ukraine, l'échec de ce programme montre le besoin d'indépendance stratégique hors de la tutelle de Washington. L'industrie aéronautique française et ses dizaines de milliers de salariés sont dans l'attente de clarifications. En conséquence, il lui demande comment elle entend développer un avion de sixième génération. Quelles seraient les exigences budgétaires, industrielles et opérationnelle pour que la France poursuive le programme SCAF en configuration réduite, y compris de manière autonome ? Entend-elle élargir la coopération en cours avec l'Espagne vers d'autres pays volontaires, y compris hors de l'OTAN, afin de signer le contrat de la phase 2 du SCAF avec de nouveaux partenaires ? Quelles alternatives le Gouvernement a-t-il identifiées pour garantir le remplacement de la flotte de Rafale et assurer la pérennité des capacités aériennes françaises dans l'hypothèse d'un échec définitif du programme SCAF ? Quelle est sa position concernant la proposition formulée par certains acteurs industriels et syndicaux allemands de dissocier le développement de l'avion de combat des autres piliers du SCAF et une telle dissociation lui paraît-elle compatible avec la cohérence opérationnelle du système global ? Il lui demande enfin si elle dispose d'une stratégie pour ramener le gouvernement fédéral allemand à des sentiments plus coopératifs et à défaut, si elle tournera la page de la coopération franco-allemande sur le char du futur, où Rheinmetall entend évincer Nexter.

I believe users of all browsers and social media platforms should have an option to turn off AI in applications like, Snapchat, Instagram/Facebook, Google, Firefox etc etc I believe AI is making us dumber and lazier it's also bad for the environment. However, there are some key advantages to the use of AI. That's why it should be a mandatory feature to turn off AI. You could be using AI that is locally run this is the safer and better option.
