During a recent speech at University College London, Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the UK's potential in artificial intelligence, positioning Britain as a future AI superpower with historical roots in technology.
Starmer's appointment of Matt Clifford as AI Opportunities Adviser raised eyebrows due to Clifford's extensive background in tech investments and potential conflicts of interest in shaping AI policy.
Several media and tech executives expressed concern over Matt Clifford's influence in AI policymaking, urging clarity on how various interests are represented within the government.
Damian Collins highlighted the irony in Starmer's strong endorsement of AI's transformative capabilities when his principal advisor has significant financial ties to the tech sector.
