The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether he has had discussions on the availability of consumer Artificial Intelligence tools with representatives of (a) Apple, (b) Google and (c) Microsoft.

Answered by Feryal Clark

Across DSIT and the wider Government, we continue to regularly engage with key stakeholders, including Apple, Google, and Microsoft. We recognise the availability of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools is fundamental to encouraging adoption and to kickstart an era of economic growth.

The AI Opportunities Action Plan will set out ways to improve people’s lives by enhancing services, developing new products and boosting the responsible adoption of AI across all parts of the economy.
