A look at London-based AI startup Cosine, which is building a frontier model with UK government backing, as some question if it has the talent and resources (Financial Times)

London-based AI startup Cosine is developing a frontier model with support from the UK government. Despite this backing, questions are being raised about the company's capacity, particularly concerning its talent pool and resources. Cosine, which has approximately 30 employees, has reportedly raised only $15 million, leading some to doubt its ability to deliver on Britain's ambition for a "sovereign" AI model.
