On this week’s episode of The Debrief, MT’s editorial team dissects the Spring Statement and takes a look at some of the AI-driven innovations that are disrupting industries. 


It’s the economy, stupid. James Carville’s immortal (and loosely quoted) words must echo in the ears of every Chancellor, charged with the most knotty and important brief of them all. Last week, we asked leaders how well Labour was doing on the economy; this week, Rachel Reeves got the chance to update us on her plans for achieving Labour’s much-vaunted, but so far elusive, growth objectives. We bring you some of the key announcements from the Spring Statement and reactions from business leaders. 


If that all feels a bit heavy, we’re here to bring you some light relief with a look at some of the more unusual AI applications that nonetheless hold the potential to revolutionise parts of everyday life. You may not have heard of low-adhesion railway track conditions, but you’ve almost certainly been impacted by them – while the crisis in UK care will sadly be a familiar topic to us all. We explain how AI can help.
