We're facing global insecurity, climate change, war in Ukraine and AI transformation, and all the Tories can offer is tax cuts for the wealthy and deregulation, leaving it to the likes of Elon Musk and water companies to decide our future,I said on Keegan on @Newsnight last night
Desperate. I didn’t know you could block people on linked in until you blocked me for disagreeing with you Tom. Presumably you block me on twitter now, right?

When an industry suddenly starts behaving like it is in need of regulation be aware of the "regulatory capture" playbook. The AI tech bros know all about it and how to play the game. youtu.be/F9cO3-MLHOM?is=wcAD…

We don't talk enough about how concentrated key tech markets are- cloud, social media, LLMs, AI chips. This @newsmediaorg event @FT was a welcome discussion on the lack of competition in digital markets and how it impacts economic growth and public trust
