“The government will increase the UK's public (sovereign) AI compute capacity twentyfold by 2030, starting with a new state-of-the-art national supercomputer.”
Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, AI Opportunities Action Plan
Deadline is 2030; early steps include Isambard-AI in Bristol, Dawn in Cambridge and a planned £750 million supercomputer in Edinburgh, but the full twentyfold expansion is unresolved.
“The Republic of Korea has agreed to co-host a mini virtual summit on AI in the next 6 months, with France to then host the next in-person Summit a year from now.”

Korea co-hosted the AI Seoul Summit with a virtual leaders' session on 21–22 May 2024, a few weeks past the six-month mark; France's in-person AI Action Summit, however, did not take place until 10–11 February 2025, roughly 15 months later rather than 'a year from now'.
