Meta and Alan Turing Institute back open source AI fellowship | Computer Weekly
Briefly

The government announced a $1m fellowship grant supported by Meta and the Alan Turing Institute to advance public service technology using open source AI models. Fellows will focus on enhancing Labour's Plan for Change through AI applications, such as language translation for national security and improving administrative processes. Open source AI models aim to reduce costs for taxpayers while increasing productivity and efficiency in public services. The initiative seeks to align AI experts with the practical challenges faced by government operations.
Open source AI models are helping researchers and developers make major scientific and medical breakthroughs, and they have the potential to transform the delivery of public services, too.
These fellowships will offer an innovative way to match AI experts with the real-world challenges our public services are facing.
