UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has unveiled a strategy to transform Britain into a global leader in artificial intelligence. The plan includes significant investments in AI research, talent development, and the integration of AI into public services like healthcare and education. A new regulatory body will ensure ethical AI development, addressing transparency and fairness.
The initiative is expected to boost the UK economy by contributing £200 billion annually by 2030 and creating thousands of high-paying jobs. While promising, concerns remain over job displacement, privacy, and ethical challenges. The UK’s ability to lead responsibly will shape its AI legacy.
