AI UK – discussing the national AI strategy, AI Standards Hub, and data in the public eye

Hosted by the Alan Turing Institute, AI UK is a two day conference that showcases artificial intelligence and data science research, development, and policy in the UK. This year, the event took place on 22 and 23 March, and participants were treated to a variety of interesting talks, panel discussions, and conversations on a wide variety of topics. The past year has seen much activity in the UK with regards to strategy, governance and policy. The policy-related sessions at AI UK provided the opportunity for participants to find out more about, amongst other things, the progress of AI-related legislation, regulation, the national AI strategy, the national AI Standards Hub, and how data is used at a governmental level. We take a look at three of the policy and strategy-related sessions that took place during the two days.
