Summary

Make AI adoption Britain’s national economic priority, says CBI. Mr Narayan said the CBI’s report is a “welcome contribution” to the debate on how to realise AI’s full potential. The CBI wants the Government to set up a business AI adoption delivery group, lay out a voluntary responsible AI adoption code and public pledge, invest in AI skills at all levels and develop a national AI literacy standard, and have easy-to-navigate regulation surrounding the technology. “If we get this right, the prize won’t be measured in technology alone – it will be measured in better jobs, rising wages, stronger businesses and higher living standards,” Ms Newton-Smith said.

Furthermore, In a report published by the CBI and Oliver Wyman, they warn that there is a growing “execution divide” for companies who are scaling up the use of AI throughout their organisation and those left in so-called pilot mode.
