European AI embraces the power of open source

European AI is cooperative. It brings talents together from different countries, sectors and backgrounds.

Because the AI race is far from over. Truth is, we are only at the beginning. The frontier is constantly moving. And global leadership is still up for grabs.

AI can help us boost our competitiveness, protect our security, shore up public health, and make access to knowledge and information more democratic.

And this means embracing a way of life where AI is everywhere.

We want Europe to be one of the leading AI continents

How can companies demonstrate a multipolar mindset on people? Here are a few practices CEOs should consider:

Geopolitics is not only personal—it’s emotional.

a culture of geopolitical resilience

using advanced technologies to anticipate and prepare for future geopolitical disruptions.

One private equity fund, for instance, identified portfolio companies in regions where profits were likely to shrink because of regional conflicts and redirected them to more stable geographies. Additionally, fund executives identified products that could be considered “dual use”—that is, products that could have both commercial and military applications—and would be especially vulnerable to cross-border trade scrutiny. They relocated the manufacturing of these products to areas that would be less exposed to dual-use regulations if those regulations were to increase in scope.

It will be critical for business leaders to monitor where this funding lands.

They are finding opportunities in three areas in particular—accelerating growth, optimizing business operations, and developing capabilities and strategies to address global disruption.

These include tariffs, the provision of subsidies in support of national industrial policies, and governments’ bias toward investing in geopolitical allies across supply chains, talent, technology and data, capital deployment, and other business domains.

Business leaders should be asking themselves questions such as, will our competitors’ products be more or less expensive than ours because of new tariffs and taxes? When and how can we align our business with trade flows into new corridors? What new economic and security alliances could also create opportunities for us to grow or to change our cost structure? What industrial policy incentives might present significant growth potential for us? How is our risk-adjusted cost of capital changing across geographies and how might we optimize our capital deployment?

Yet the PRC government distorts markets to advantage PRC-based hardware, software, and services suppliers that compromise the security of the customer. By contrast, the United States seeks to provide the emerging and developing world with financially sound alternatives to unsustainable initiatives

digital sovereignty and protectionism by blocking access to their markets, unduly preventing cross-border data flows, and preferencing domestic manufacturers and service providers, we continue international engagement to enhance interoperability, security, and market access.    

. Left unaddressed, the digital divide not only imperils efforts to build a strong digital ecosystem, but also threatens to increase income inequality and instability in emerging economies.

Remarks of President Joe Biden — State of the Union Address As Prepared for Delivery

Thanks to my Chips and Science Act the United States is investing more in research and development than ever before. 

And our trade deficit with China

Harness the promise of A.I. and protect us from its peril.   Ban A.I. voice impersonation and more! 

I’ve made sure that the most advanced American technologies can’t be used in China’s weapons. 

Creating stability in the Middle East also means containing the threat posed by Iran.  

As we manage challenges at home, we’re also managing crises abroad including in the Middle East.

Look, I’m a capitalist.  If you want to make a million bucks – great!  Just pay your fair share in taxes.  A fair tax code is how we invest in the things –   that make a country great, health care, education, defense, and more.  But here’s the deal.  The last administration enacted a $2 Trillion tax cut that overwhelmingly benefits the very wealthy and the biggest corporations and exploded the federal deficit. 

the wealthy and biggest corporations no longer get all the breaks. 

Wall Street didn’t build this country!  The middle class built this country! And unions built the middle class! 

Well instead of having to import semiconductor chips, which America invented I might add, private companies are now investing billions of dollars to build new chip factories here in America!  Creating tens of thousands of jobs many of them paying over $100,000 a year and don’t require a college degree. 

my purpose tonight is to both wake up this Congress, and alert the American people that this is no ordinary moment either. 

The model to be used by the Albanian government will translate into Albanian and provide a detailed overview of what and where changes need to be made to local legislation to align with EU rules. It will also provide an analysis of the impact of all measures and changes, which usually require many experts and a lot of time.  

as the Federal Government, aim to coordinate our international digital policy even more closely with our partners

same time, we are encouraging the commitment and representation of like-minded partner countries of the Global South in relevant Internet governance forums as well as the reciprocal capacity building and expansion

We use digitalization to tackle global challenges

The high complexity of global value and supply chains requires close collaboration and specialization at EU level and with partners and allies worldwide

EU to connect additional partners to existing infrastructures and make space-based data, services and products accessible to them.

We reject any political influence that runs counter to our values

We also take into account at all times the increasing security and defence policy dimensions of data policy

The deteriorating geopolitical environment increases the urgency of constantly considering also other dimensions, particularly security and defence policy, when dealing with regulatory issue

Much of the other work involves setting standards for datasets that are not uniform between different entities and provinces. This would allow them to be more easily used on new data exchanges such as the one recently launched in Beijing that aims to allow companies to trade anonymous proprietary data -- effectively a pilot for a national data trading system
