🏗️ The Structural Reality Being Avoided

Direct quote from senior policy manager acknowledges real barriers (skills shortages, limited training capacity, lack of support). Report is candid about current low adoption rates and structural obstacles. No denial of AI's potential disruption, no blame-shifting, no fantasy economics—just empirical findings with policy recommendations. Evidence-based and self-aware rather than evasive.

📊 What the Data Actually Says

- Make UK report 'AI, Skills and the Future of the UK Manufacturing Sector' - Statistics on AI adoption rates (2% widely embedded, 40% partial, 19% none) - £6bn annual output loss estimate - £150bn GDP boost projection to 2035
