The Green Room by Deloitte tackles a tricky question about the world around us. From automation anxiety to zero waste, we’ll call on clever experts and great research from our firm and beyond to find the answer.

&lt;p&gt;Artificial intelligence is changing how we work, how businesses grow and how countries compete.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;When you look back at history, every generation has a technology that changes everything. Steam. Electricity. The Internet.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So technology transformation isn&#039;t new. But as we face the latest challenge, is the UK ready?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In this series finale of The Green Room, we bring together experts from past episodes to explore what readiness really means. For people, for organisations and for the country as a whole.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;From skills and trust to energy, infrastructure and investment, this episode looks beyond the hype to the choices that will shape the UK&#039;s AI future.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Tune in to find out:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;Why AI readiness is about more than technology&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;How businesses can move from experimentation to adoption at scale&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Why trust, leadership and skills could decide how much value AI creates&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Why compute, energy and infrastructure are central to the UK&#039;s AI ambitions&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;What it will take for people, businesses and regions across the UK to benefit&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This episode is the finale of The Green Room&#039;s series exploring the AI opportunity for the UK.
