Using generative AI for the first draft UK: N2242 reported on UK activity, regretted the new meeting format, and was concerned over the slow progress of work on the new standard and the failure to seek consensus over three additions to the work list.

It was agreed (see item 7) that the three additions to the work list and two large items (US04 and US10) be considered for deferral to a later standard.
