Google Owner to Invest GB 5BIL in UK AI
Alphabet Reveals GB 5BIL AI Investment in UK..Promising Thousands of Jobs BBC 18 SEP 2025 ![]() What is AI And What is It Used For? AI allows computers to process large amounts of data, identify patterns and follow detailed instructions about what to do with that information. Computers cannot think, empathise or reason. However, scientists have developed systems that can perform tasks which usually require human intelligence, trying to replicate how people acquire and use knowledge. A record breaking GB150BIL package of US investment into the UK has been announced during US President Donald Trump's state visit. The UK government is calling this the largest commercial deal of its kind and expects it to create more than 7,600 high quality jobs across the country. A large majority of the money will come from Blackstone, the worlds largest alternative asset manager, which has unveiled plans for a GB90BIL investment in the UK over the next decade. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said the investments are a testament to Britains economic strength and a bold signal that our country is open, ambitious, and ready to lead. Jobs, growth and opportunity is what I promised for working people, and its exactly what this State Visit is delivering, he added. On Thursday, major UK and US investors will meet the Prime Minister and Trump at Chequers to discuss how both countries can go further to deepen their economic ties and future collaborations. Blackstone previously announced in June that it would invest GB370BIL in Europe over the next decade. Earlier this week, Microsoft pledged to spend GB 22BIL in the UK over the next four years, and Google pledged GB 5BIL over the next two years to expand an existing data centre in Hertfordshire. These investments will also help act as a powerful counterweight to the exodus of investment seen in the pharmaceutical sector. However, the investments announced by Google and Microsoft are less than 4% of their annual spend, and the 7,600 jobs it is hoped to be created is a small number compared to the 160,000 payroll jobs lost since last year. Where is The Investment Going? Blackstones large investment is in addition to the GB10BIL it previously announced for data centre development in the UK. Real estate investment trust Prologis is also set to invest GB3.9BIL into the UKs life sciences and advanced manufacturing. Palantir will invest up to GB 1.5BIL in UK defence innovation and plans to create up to 350 new jobs. American tech company Amentum plans to create more than 3,000 jobs and expand its UK workforce by over 50%. Boeing has said it will convert two 737 aircraft in Birmingham for the US Air Force, which would be the first USAF aircraft built in the UK for over 50 years, and could create 150 high skilled jobs. US Engineering firm, STAX, has also committed up to GB38MIL to expand its UK operations. The 7,600 total jobs promised are intended to be in all areas of the UK. This is set to include 1,000 new jobs in Belfast and 6,000 more roles from Glasgow to Warrington, the Midlands and the North East. Business and trade secretary Peter Kyle said the deal reflects growing confidence in the UKs industrial strategy. These record breaking investments will create thousands of high-quality jobs across the UK, he said. The government said it wants to give real opportunities for working people, including apprenticeships in clean energy and careers in biotech and AI. This comes ahead of the signing of the Tech Prosperity Deal on Thursday, which is a major new deal to accelerate the building of new nuclear power in both the US and the UK. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McuClcLiwsk |
