Key priorities for the UK’s Future National AI Strategy- techUK podcast

This month’s podcast is presented by Katherine Holden, techUK’s Head of Data Analytics, AI and Digital ID and explores key priority areas to be addressed in the UK Government’s National AI Strategy, expected later this year.

We have a brilliant line of guests including: David Frank, UK Government Affairs Manager at Microsoft (00:36), Louise Folliot, UKIMESA AI Infrastructure Business Development Lead and Matt Armstrong-Barnes Chief Technologist at Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) (18:43) and Shanky Viswanathan, Vice President, CTO and Global Head - Industry Advisory Group, Communications, Media and Info Services at TATA Consultancy Services (34:15).

Throughout the podcast we discuss where the UK is leading when it comes to AI, how the UK can remain at the forefront of the development and use of innovative, responsible and ethical AI and some of the most exciting AI applications that are on the horizon, including the use of AI in space!

We’re also keen to get your views on what you’d like to see prioritised in the upcoming UK AI Strategy via techUK’s upcoming AI week this month. To get involved, check out our call for contributions page here.
