Kanishka Narayan told the BBC's Political Thinking podcast that dealing with the technology requires not only regulation, but building capability and capacity in the state too.

His comments were recorded the day before Barclays banking group announced it was cutting 5,000 jobs in an AI-led efficiency drive.
