OpenAI signed a strategic partnership with the UK to promote investment.

The UK has entered into a "strategic partnership" with OpenAI, and Prime Minister Starmer's government is seeking to attract more investment in the country's artificial intelligence sector and use the technology to streamline public services. The memorandum of understanding includes OpenAI committing to explore investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure such as data centers and hiring more employees in the UK, but does not provide details on how much spending is being considered. In return, the UK government commits to adopting OpenAI's artificial intelligence technology in public services such as judiciary, defense and security, and educational technology. This may involve using the data of millions of UK citizens to create AI-driven digital services.
