Artificial Intelligence: Research
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what steps he is taking to support research into artificial intelligence.
Answered by Feryal Clark
The Government actively supports AI research by collaborating with academic institutions and industry, investing in talent development, and funding research projects.
UKRI has allocated over £1 billion to AI research including doctoral training, the Alan Turing Institute, Bridge AI, Responsible AI UK, and BRAID programmes.
We are focused on reducing barriers to research through initiatives such as AISI’s Systemic Safety Grants Programme, which provides funding of up to £200,000 to innovative projects addressing AI risks.
