This week, our Commander Vice Admiral Doug G.

Seattle hosted a modern-day British invasion on the rugby pitch. Great to see USA Military take on the British Army as America celebrates its 250th anniversary. 🇬🇧🏉🇺🇸

I was delighted to speak at the AI Summit during @LDNTechWeek today. AI has the capacity and capability to transform warfare. If we don’t make progress and recognise the profound effect AI will have on the business of war, we will lose and we won’t deter.   Read my speech 👇
