CEOs have had enough of incremental AI
IT leaders are on notice, as few C-suite colleagues see their current AI strategies being transformational enough to appreciably advance the business in the next year.

Yeh the report is basically ‘who knows?’ about usage as opposed to direct investment in the sector.

My guess is that governments will continue to prop up the AI sector because they think it’s “too big to fail”, but we really should talk more about whether the AI economy is too much of a threat to democracy, community and the environment to be allowed succeed.

A big issue with AI generated academic "work" is that AI writes to dazzle with assumed authority rather than to genuinely illuminate.

Kings Cross probably would be at least in the short term. But if AI related UK GDP growth not coming from US tech firms in UK, then maybe less of an issue.

I’d be interested to know how much of this is Kings Cross related. In other words, how wide is the UK AI boom? It certainly *feels* like London is one of the global centres, at least on the research/governance/security side but we’re not exactly building many mega data centres.

A think tank funded by Anthropic, OpenAI and Google is urging the UK government to weaken copyright law to let AI companies train on creatives' work without permission.
And it has the gall to say this would "benefit both AI and creators."
Shameless.
