DEVELOPING: Microsoft Boss Warns UK Economy on Brink of 10% Boost in Just 5 Years

Microsoft Boss Warns UK Economy on Brink of 10% Boost in Just 5 Years Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has made a shocking prediction that the UK economy is poised for a massive 10% boost in just five years, thanks to a new AI deal with the government. The "Tech Prosperity Deal" between the UK and US tech giants, including Google and Nvidia, will see a £30 billion investment in British-based infrastructure to support AI technology. Microsoft's involvement includes the creation of a powerful supercomputer in Essex. Nadella told the BBC that he expects the economic growth to happen faster than predicted, potentially within five years instead of ten. "Whenever anyone gets excited about AI, I want to see it ultimately in the economic growth and the GDP growth," he said. The deal was signed as part of US President Donald Trump's second state visit to the UK. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer hailed it as a "generational step change" in the relationship between the two countries. The agreement is expected to create highly skilled jobs and drive economic growth, but its full impact remains to be seen. This is a developing story.
