Description
The UKs top AI research hub, the Alan Turing Institute, faces a major overhaul after a critical review from its main funder, UK Research and Innovation. The institute, which received a £100 million, five-year package, was found to have a weak strategy and poor value for money. The review calls for a laser focus on defense and national security, reducing work in health and environment. The institutes new chief executive, George Williamson, is set to steer the institute towards these national priorities.
