Senior ministers and officials met 137 businesses while drawing up the UK's AI datacentre plans, but no environmental groups and only two community groups, an investigation by Spotlight on Corruption has found. The campaign group made 40 freedom of information requests. It also counted 38 ministers, senior civil servants and special advisers who moved into AI industry jobs between July 2024 and September this year.
