Delighted to have been a guest at the @UKBAngels Awards last week.
Takeaways on this snapshot of the sector:
(1) There are some really great early stage investors working across the #UK right now.
(2) Diversity is still a problem - not for the sake of it...
1/4
...am not sure there is enough learning from one generation to the next (both ways!).
(5) Angel syndicates still feel small. Large networks with more crowd insight and more £ firepower would be a positive.
What did we miss?
Thanks to AI Seed for the invite!

Here's our statement on AI and the economy.
We Must Act Now
A Statement on AI’s Transformation of the Economy
1. AI may become radically more powerful over the next 10 years.
2. This could drive an unprecedented transformation of our economy, larger than the Industrial Revolution, but unfolding over a vastly shorter time frame. It could bring risks, including large-scale job displacement, as well as opportunities such as major gains in living standards.
3. Economists, policymakers and technology leaders must act now to understand the economics of transformative AI and to build the incentives, guardrails, and institutions needed to steer AI in a direction that complements humans and benefits society.

An initial startup idea can't usually be both grand and precise. In practice they're usually either grand and vague or precise and small. Precise and small is better. You know who your initial users are, and you expand outward. With grand and vague you can't even get started.
