Microsoft says its new $30bn (22bn) investment in the UK's AI sector its largest outside of the US - should significantly boost Britain's economy in the next few years. Its package forms a major part of a $31billion agreement made between the UK government and various other US tech giants, including Nvidia and Google, to invest in British-based infrastructure to support AI technology, largely in the form of data centres. Microsoft will also now be involved in the creation of a powerful new supercomputer in Loughton, Essex.
