UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has expressed support for artificial intelligence, highlighting its potential as an opportunity rather than a threat.

During a speech at his party's inaugural investment summit, Starmer encouraged the country to embrace AI, stating that the UK should actively pursue this technology.

In the near future, the Labour government plans to introduce a comprehensive strategy to utilize AI in the public sector, along with proposed legislation to regulate advanced AI models.

These initiatives are part of Starmer's broader plan to boost confidence in his economic agenda after a challenging start to his premiership, while also addressing concerns from the tech industry regarding strict regulations in the European Union.
