Britain and OpenAI have formed a partnership to enhance AI security research and invest in British AI infrastructure, including data centres. The UK government plans to invest 1 billion pounds in AI development, aiming for a twenty-fold increase in public compute capacity over five years. This partnership aims to expand OpenAI's operations in the UK and explore the application of AI across multiple domains. OpenAI's leader commended the UK for its recognition of AI's potential through the 'AI Opportunities Action Plan'.
AI will be fundamental in driving the change we need to see across the country - whether that's in fixing the NHS, breaking down barriers to opportunity or driving economic growth.
The government has set out plans to invest 1 billion pounds in computing infrastructure for AI development, hoping to increase public compute capacity 20 fold over the next five years.
OpenAI head Sam Altman praised the government for being the first to recognise the technology's potential through its 'AI Opportunities Action Plan'.
The technology could increase productivity by 1.5% a year, worth an extra 47 billion pounds annually over a decade.
