The boss of Google’s UK and European operations has issued a “call to arms” over a worrying gap in the UK’s adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) that could leave Britain at risk of missing out on a £200 billion boost to the economy.
New research from the tech giant suggests that two-thirds of workers (66%) in Britain have never used generative AI in their jobs, with usage particularly low among women over 55 and those from lower socio-economic backgrounds.
