The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) in the UK has published a strategic update on the benefits and challenges for consumers from the growing use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).   The CMA says AI innovation is delivering benefits for businesses and consumers, but also presents challenges.    The CMA says AI has significant scope to facilitate unfair consumer practices. While AI-powered services may benefit consumers by providing higher quality, lower priced and potentially more personalised products and services, they also have significant scope to facilitate unfair consumer practices.   Taking a broader view of AI systems, firms’ misuse of AI and other algorithmic systems, whether intentionally or not, can create risks to competition often by exacerbating or taking greater advantage of existing problems and weaknesses in markets.   To read the update visit https://lnkd.in/eRetsp7p

The recent report examining the emissions of 42 leading UK resellers and MSPs throws a spotlight on an urgent issue: the need for action on sustainability within the tech industry. It's a clear call to action for those yet to prioritise sustainability, highlighting a stark choice between leading the way in green practices or falling behind as laggards. This isn't just about regulatory compliance or meeting social expectations; it's about recognising the role of the tech industry in shaping a sustainable future. As consumers and businesses increasingly value environmental responsibility, companies that take early and decisive steps towards sustainability are not only contributing to a healthier planet but are also positioning themselves as forward-thinking leaders. At SCC, we champion sustainability within our organisation, and work to help our customers become more sustainable as well, for example through services like SCC Recyclea. The journey towards a greener future is a collective one, and every step counts.
