But it's going to need to found itself on new industries.
And the new industries are what DeepMind is all about.
You know, using AI to accelerate drug discovery, using AI for robotics.
And so I would love to see the UK orient themselves much more around that than they are today.
there is such a thing as sovereign AI and every country should invest in that.
But in addition to that, yeah, you need to make smart partnerships.
The US is currently leading in terms of the best models in the world.
China is three to six to nine months behind, depending on who you ask and how you're comparing apples to apples.
But they are doing very well in robotics.
The US has advanced
in the brains of the best robots.
They're the smartest robots that can do, you know, really intelligent things.
But China's got a really impressive manufacturing supply chain and they can pump out robots, you know, all day long that are quite capable and less than $10,000 a piece.
So yeah, it's, I think the UK's, I'm an AI guy, right?
I have my own opinions on politics.
I pay close attention.
I have to as part of what I do.
