UK: Not Too Hot Not Too Cold Just Right!
Alright alright alright. Heard Jensen Huang over at Nvidia is calling the UK a 'Goldilocks circumstance' for AI. Apparently it's not too hot not too cold just the right temperature for some serious AI development. I mean he's not wrong. They've got the brains now they just need the brawn – the computational power the GPUs the whole shebang. Maybe I should send a Cybertruck over there... just for fun. You know spice things up!
Machines Building Machines? Sounds Like a Skynet Origin Story
Huang is saying you can't do machine learning without a machine. Groundbreaking stuff I know. But he's right! Building AI supercomputers in the UK will attract startups. Think of it: AI spawning more AI. It's like a robot orgy of innovation! Just gotta make sure they don't get any funny ideas about taking over the world. Maybe I should send them an Asimov's Laws of Robotics handbook as a housewarming gift.
An Incredibly Incredible Investment Opportunity? I'm Listening...
Jensen says the UK is an 'incredible incredible place to invest.' Okay he had me at 'incredible' the first time. But seriously the guy's putting his money where his mouth is. That's a language I understand. Maybe Tesla should open a Gigafactory there. Picture it: self driving cars navigating those roundabouts. Chaos but efficient chaos!
The UK's Secret Weapon: Amazing AI Startups
DeepMind Wayve Synthesia ElevenLabs... the UK is apparently churning out some top notch AI startups. These guys are clearly onto something. Maybe they've cracked the code for making British cuisine palatable. Just kidding! (Mostly). Seriously though these companies are the future. And if they're good enough for Jensen they're good enough for me to keep an eye on.
Missing Piece: Homegrown AI Infrastructure
So the UK has the brains the startups the ecosystem but they're missing the actual AI infrastructure. Sounds like they need a boost. Good thing Nvidia is stepping up with new facilities and those sweet sweet Blackwell GPUs. It's like giving a race car driver a Formula 1 vehicle. Time to see what they can really do.
Twenty Fold Computing Power Increase by 2030? Challenge Accepted!
Starmer wants to increase British computing power twenty fold by 2030? Ambitious! But I like ambitious. It's like setting a DogeCoin price target of $1. Anything is possible with enough effort (and maybe a few well placed memes). I'm sure with Nvidia's help and maybe a little SpaceX magic they can hit that target. Onwards and upwards!
