if any party decided to use it. But they aren't. The consultation was an invitation to write in with views; it turned out (to no-one's surprise) that the individuals who had views were against taking copyright away from individuals. But most people ignore copyright, and AI, completely.

Ask anyone you know who lives in the UK whether they think AI policy was a factor in these elections. They will all tell you 'no'. I think they will also tell you they could not name a single difference in policy on AI between any of the parties. I'd suspect the Greens are more sceptical of it, from their general principles, but that's about it.
