Axe falls on plans for Edinburgh-based exascale computer
Briefly

The UK's plan for AI and tech investment, including an exascale supercomputer at Edinburgh University, has been cancelled by the new administration due to budget constraints.
The cancellations include the £800 million Exascale program and £500 million extra funding for AI Research Resource, with £300 million already committed to continue.
The decision to cancel the funding has sparked criticism from the previous administration, citing the importance of such investments for economic growth.
