    My lad is heading into uni this year and by the looks of it he needs to keep an eye on AI based technologies (he’s doing criminology)

    Great to see this investment

    Hmm. Investment in NE is good. AI? Less so. As soon as OpenAI is attached it becomes FAR more precarious. Not sure I want NE future prosperity tied to Sam Altman’s continued ability to extract VC support while he circles the plug hole.

    Splashy headline but I’ll probably file it alongside freeports for now.

    Good to see the investment in Cambois. If ever a town needed it it is this town.

    Same with mine. She's just started doing pharmaceutical science at uni and AI is used in drugs research.

    Before I forget, I'll just mention this as a bookmark.

    An ex-employer, and still a close friend, has a huge pharmaceutical research company.

    He's Italian and currently in Lugano but moving to the UK soon.

    I'd be happy, in the future, to introduce you ...

    ... who knows eh?
