DONALD Trump said a new tech deal would help the US and UK “dominate” in the world of artificial intelligence (AI) as Sir Keir Starmer hailed a “new era” for the special relationship.

The US president, making an unprecedented second state visit to the UK, is determined to take on China in a battle for technological supremacy. The tech prosperity deal signed at Chequers will see US firms invest in the UK and boost cooperation on AI, quantum and other emerging technologies.

Mr Trump said: “This agreement will also help America and our British allies dominate the future of artificial intelligence.”

He pointed out the US is “leading China and the world by a lot” on AI.

Mr Trump said the deal would “ensure our countries lead the next great technological revolution side by side”
