Artificial Intelligence is the fastest growing deep technology in the world, with huge potential to rewrite the rules of entire industries, drive economic growth and transform all areas of life.
The UK will be at the forefront of harnessing AI’s potential to tackle global challenges, as well as developing the guardrails to mitigate risks.
We are home to 4 of the top 10 universities in the world, some of the world’s strongest AI research groups, and a third of Europe’s total AI companies. The UK is a great place to live, work and conduct cutting-edge research and innovation into AI.
About the Global Talent Network: AI Futures
