The UK government recently announced that it will allocate £60 million to the University of Oxford and University College London (UCL) to establish two new AI research laboratories. These labs will focus on developing open-source AI models with low hardware requirements, aiming to enhance the UK's competitiveness in the global AI race and reduce reliance on US tech giants. The plan, unveiled on the 114th anniversary of computer science pioneer Alan Turing's birth, is seen as a significant move by the UK in AI foundational research and technological sovereignty.
