Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has travelled with Donald Trump to the UK, to sell AI. He says it will lift UK GDP by 10% within 5 years.

Microsoft, Google and Nvidia have announced investments as part of a £31bn UK-US "Tech Prosperity Deal".

Needless to say I’ve bookmarked this and will return to it in 5 years.

@GossiTheDog oh like we’ll have any functioning websites in 5 years.
