A1 Spott roundabout plan?
Ive done the first 3 steps and just astonished at the maze people will experience, when wanting a simple 20 min introduction to Ai. Did no-one user test this? It's a terrible mess.

The sign-up for GOV.UK '20mins Ai training' tangle
Editorial Note: It has taken more than 20 minutes to get this far, including at least one point at which most people would have closed the laptop and gone outside. I'm not suggesting that government infects any IT it touches with incompetence, but I'm not NOT suggesting that either.
