@hkanji Thanks for sharing

Anthropic is hiring a for a role in London that will be paid up to £630k A YEAR.

This excludes stock options.

For a long time the UK has been seen a location for cheap offshore talent.

There's nothing cheap about a 7-figure package for a researcher (the role is Research Engineer, Science of Scaling).

I've been celebrating the recent OpenAI and Anthropic expansions in London.

However, in reality, they may end up pricing out, or poaching talent from, some of the capital's home grown companies.

Great article in @thetimes from @kprescott all about this linked below

As AI use explodes, so does the need for clean energy to power data centres. Why not just put them in outer space? That is what @LumenOrbit & @johnstonphil are doing. We cover that, & other tech stories, in the latest Times Tech pod w/ @kprescott. Listen: https://t.co/LFeIYuGNT0
