UK Growth Secretary Dan Tomlinson made a clear statement: Despite the wave of boycotts against artificial intelligence in the US midterm elections, the UK will not slow down the pace of AI development. Democratic candidates won big in the general election. Their campaign propositions include tightening supervision and slowing down data center construction. Tomlinson said in an interview that it is impossible to “take for granted that Britain will replicate America's antagonistic situation.” He said that the UK can avoid a fierce rivalry surrounding data centers and continue to regard data center construction as “critical infrastructure.” Tomlinson said that the British government “has observed the disorderly development of parts of the US and learned lessons from it.” He emphasized that Britain has adopted a differentiated approach, and that the regulatory framework has incorporated some of the supervisory mechanisms required to win the Democratic Party candidate.
