Peter Kyle announced at the Google Cloud Summit a partnership with Google aimed at upskilling 100,000 civil servants by 2030. This partnership includes collaboration from Google's DeepMind AI to enhance efficiencies across the public sector and accelerate scientific discovery. Kyle asserted that these efforts are meant to protect taxpayers' interests, as he claims previous governments have inadequately engaged with technology firms. Despite highlighting his meetings with tech companies, no specific commercial agreements have been established with Google, which will not involve direct payment from the government.
Peter Kyle stated that he has held 28 meetings with big tech companies in just six months, acknowledging he is 'too close to big tech'. The partnership with Google aims to upskill 100,000 civil servants by 2030, leveraging Google’s DeepMind AI to enhance efficiencies in the public sector and support scientific discovery.
In discussing the collaboration, Kyle emphasized that he represents the British taxpayer, insisting that previous governments have fallen short in establishing beneficial relationships with technology firms to ensure fair procurement.
