And with growing pressure from a potential second Trump administration, how much independence can the UK maintain?

In this episode, we break down Labour’s AI strategy, the implications of Anthropic’s recent contract to boost UK government efficiency, and whether AI policy will be driven by ethics or economic pressure. Is meaningful regulation even possible—or will the UK cave to industry and international influence?

Tune in as we explore the politics, power plays, and big tech lobbying shaping the future of AI regulation..
