Keir Starmer has said he wants the UK to be the “best place in the world" for Artificial Intelligence businesses, as he launched an AI campus in London.
But the boss of Google UK said Britain risks "falling behind" on the technology without the right investment.
On Wednesday, the prime minister encouraged young people to get involved in an AI "revolution", while speaking at the launch event for Google's AI Campus, in his Holborn and St Pancras constituency, which is training dozens of local students on a two-year course.
Speaking at the facility in Camden, the PM said he wanted the UK and London to be the “best place in the world to start and scale and AI business”.
