To mark the launch of @UKSovereignAI’s new substack, my thoughts on why the next 24 months are critical, both for AI and Britain’s place in the world, and how we build true sovereignty. Subscribe and join the conversation..
🚨Sovereign AI Substack. 🚨 We've joined Substack. We’ll use it to share longer-form thinking on British AI, sovereignty, and the opportunities this technology presents for the UK. In the months ahead, we’ll be publishing perspectives from across the ecosystem - from founders, our growing portfolio of British startups, and leaders in industry. We're pleased to kick off with a guest post from our Secretary of State, @leicesterliz MP, reflecting on why the next 24 months will be critical for Britain's AI future, and what it will take to build true AI sovereignty. Subscribe and join the conversation.

New analysis shows removing barriers for women in tech could add £4bn to the UK economy and boost women's gains by an average of £7k a year. Today, the Women in Tech Taskforce met to discuss how to turn this evidence into action.

Removing the barriers for women in tech could add £4bn to the economy - as well as giving us tech that works for everyone. That's why we're cracking on with our Women in Research Charter and our Women in Tech Taskforce 💪 mirror.co.uk/news/politics/l…

This is the difference a Labour government makes: growing the economy, creating great jobs and putting more money in people's pockets. And making sure that the benefits are felt right across the country, giving people the skills to seize these opportunities. Change: delivered.
