Went for a meeting in Kings Cross today and it’s kinda buzzing. We need to come up with a better name than the FT’s “silicon roundabout of AI”. Someone coin this please we’ll cover it on the show and your name will live in eternity

"It's the second biggest talent pool of AI researchers outside of San Francisco." @altantutar says London offers something few other startup hubs can match, world-class AI talent embedded in one of the world's most inspirational cities: "I love the city. Every time I walk around Zone 1, I get inspired." "I went to a party and met a lot of DeepMind folks. I don't think that's going to happen in San Francisco." "You can get both. You can tap into the tech talent in King's Cross and still have the life you want outside of work."

I learned recently that a popular view in government is that there is little value in allowing data centres to be built because they don't create many "good jobs".
