environmental sustainability, health and national security.Lately, the institute has focused more on responsible AI and ethics, and one of its recent reports was on the increasing use of the tech by romance scammers.But Kyle's letter suggests the government wants the Turing institute to make defence its main priority, which would be a significant pivot for the organisation."There is an opportunity for the ATI to seize this moment," Kyle wrote in the letter to the institute's chairman, Dr Douglas Gurr."I believe the institute should build on its existing strengths, and reform itself further to prioritise its defence, national security and sovereign capabilities."Turing 2.0It's been a turbulent few months for the institute, which finds itself in survival mode in 2025.A review last year by UK Research and Innovation, the government funding body, found "a clear need for the governance and leadership structure of the Institute to evolve".At the end of 2024, 93 members of staff signed a letter expressing lack of confidence in its leadership team.In March, Jean Innes, who was appointed chief executive in July 2023, said the Turing needed to modernise and focus on AI projects, in an interview with the Financial Times.She said "a big strategic shift to a much more focused agenda on a small number of problems that have an impact in the real world".In April, Chief Scientist Mark Girolami said in an interview the organisation would be taking forward just 22 projects out of a portfolio of 104.Kyle's letter said the institute "should continue to receive the funding needed to implement reforms and deliver Turing 2.0".But he said there could be a review of the ATI's "longer-term funding arrangement" next year.The use of AI in defence is as powerful as it is controversial.Google's parent company Alphabet faced criticism earlier this year for removing a self-imposed ban on developing AI weapons.Meanwhile, the British military and other forces are already investing in AI-enabled tools.The government's defence review said AI technologies "would provide greater accuracy, lethality, and cheaper capabilities".The review said "uncrewed and autonomous systems" could be used within the UK's conventional forces within the next five years.In one example, the review said the Royal Navy could use "acoustic detection systems powered by artificial intelligence" to monitor the "growing underwater threat from a modernising Russian submarine force".The Nato spending target the UK has committed to involves spending at least 3.5% on core defence, and up to 1.5% on security-related investments.Asked whether any government funding that goes to the Alan Turing Institute would now count towards the defence spending target, Downing Street said the 1.5% security element would include "investments that raise the overall resilience of our society".The tech firm Palantir has provided data operations software to the UK's armed forces.Louis Mosley, the head of Palantir UK, told the BBC that shift the institute's focus to AI defence technologies was a good idea.He said: "Right now we face a daunting combination of darkening geopolitics and technological revolution - with the world becoming a more dangerous place right at the moment when artificial intelligence is changing the face of war and deterrence."What that means in practice is that we are now in an AI arms race against our adversaries."And the government is right that we need to put all the resources we have into staying ahead - because that is our best path to preserving peace."Additional reporting by Chris Vallance, senior technology reporterRelatedMore from the BBCBBC in other languagesFollow BBC on:Copyright 2025 BBC.

A letter signed by 93 employees of the Alan Turing Institute — which is largely funded by the U.K. government and serves as Britain’s national institute for AI and data science — expresses no confidence in the body's executive leadership team (ELT) and calls on the institute’s board to “urgently intervene.”, UK minister instructs the Turing AI institute, which has lately focused on responsible AI and ethics, to prioritize national security and defense instead — Science and Technology Secretary Peter Kyle has written to the UK's national institute for artificial intelligence (AI) to tell its bosses to refocus on defence and security., In Britain, mathematician Alan Turing and neurologist Grey Walter were two of the bright minds who tackled the challenges of intelligent machines. They traded ideas in an influential dining, This paper presents a short historical analysis of Alan Turing’s work on artificial intelligence (AI), with a focus on its early beginnings and philosophical nature, and argues that it remains fresh and inspiring even today. The discussion centres on how Turing typically approached philosophical questions concerning AI: namely, by introducing a conceptual device rooted in common sense to , Artificial intelligence sea ice forecasting systems could help predict and protect the migration routes The Alan Turing Institute has been announced as a partner in “DVPS”, a €29 The Turing has received over £500k of UK Government funding to bolster monitoring capabilities, .
