Google DeepMind’s AI Halves UK Housing Planning Time
Added:Google DeepMind is using Gemini to cut UK planning decisions by 50%. That matters because local councils are stuck in paperwork delays while Britain is trying to build 1.5 million new homes by 2029.
The prototype reads, "Planning files pulls out the key facts and helps officers process routine homeowner applications much faster." So, the housing bottleneck is not just land or labor. A big part of it is paperwork, and that is exactly where the AI is aimed. To build faster, Britain is trying to make planning move at machine speed.
