Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to help the UK become a hub for artificial intelligence development.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is at the heart of the Government’s plan to boost economic growth, transform public services, and boost living standards. The AI Opportunities Action Plan will set out how we achieve these goals, by securing the necessary infrastructure, talent and data access, and setting out steps to support AI adoption across the economy.

In the King’s Speech we committed to introducing new, binding requirements on the handful of companies developing the most advanced AI models which will support growth and innovation by ending uncertainty for AI developers, strengthening public trust and boosting business confidence in AI adoption.
