Starmer's AI bid risks a ‘race to the bottom for workers’

PRIME Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s bid to make Britain an AI “superpower” risks a “race to the bottom for workers” if they do not get a say in how the tech is used in the workplace, unions and experts said today.
The Prime Minister was urged not to bet the house on tech barons to save his ailing economic and industrial plans after announcing a major expansion in the technology to boost growth.
He cited examples of how AI can help teachers plan lessons, cut NHS waiting times and even “spot potholes quicker.”
