An excellent programme that speaks to the modernity of the UK-Canada partnership with so much opportunity.

A few of the reasons why some of the most exciting AI jobs are in.... the UK Government! 🇬🇧💻

[Matt Clifford @matthewclifford]

Something I firmly believe that I would have thought ridiculous a year ago: some of the most exciting jobs in AI today are... in UK government! Four reasons why the AI Safety Institute has made that true...

[David Barnes @_DaveBarnes]

A game the @Senators prob should have won easily was kept pretty close with the wonder scored with 4 seconds on the clock. Winning goals in ⚽️ with minutes to spare are good but this was pretty great!
