With the UK Government setting out to establish the country as a world leader in AI, there is a significant opportunity for the £9 billion UK research sector to boost its efficiency and focus efforts where human insight can generate most value.
However, misinformation and data quality issues pose a growing risk, which technology has the potential to magnify.
