Google owner reveals £5bn AI investment in UK ahead of Donald Trump’s state visit | BBC News


Google’s owner Alphabet has announced a £5bn ($6.8bn) investment in UK artificial intelligence.

The money will be used for infrastructure and scientific research over the next two years – the first of several massive US investments being unveiled ahead of US President Donald Trump’s state visit.

Google’s president and chief investment officer Ruth Porat told BBC News in an exclusive interview there were "profound opportunities in the UK" for its "pioneering work in advanced science".

The company will officially open a $1bn (£735m) data centre in Waltham Cross, Hertfordshire, with Chancellor Rachel Reeves on Tuesday.
