British AI policy in 2026 has the same structural problem as the rest of the world: there is no engineering layer underneath it. The Bletchley Declaration, the Seoul Summit communique, the UK AI Safety Institute's evaluation work, and ARIA's mission all assume the existence of a substrate they do not specify. Mickai is that substrate. One hundred and one filed UK patent applications, one thousand nine hundred and eighty-two claims, named inventor Mickarle Wagstaff-Irons, filed in Newport, built in the United Kingdom.Originally published at https://mickai.co.uk/articles/british-ai-needs-an-audit-substrate-not-another-white-paper.
