Europe is facing a major challenge in the global race for artificial intelligence, while political leaders and industry representatives have warned that the continent risks growing dependent on American and Chinese technologies.
At a summit held on November 13th in Dublin, representatives of European institutions, technology companies and the scientific community discussed the need for major investments in the development of European artificial intelligence systems.
According to Le Monde, the chairman of the French company Mistral Al, Arthur Mensch, and noted artificial intelligence researcher Geoffrey Hinton were also involved.
Europe has powerful universities, researchers and industries, but lags behind the United States and China in developing the most advanced models and infrastructure needed for their operation.
The European Commission estimates investments of at least 500 billion euros are needed for artificial intelligence development and spread.
The issue of security and regulation of technology is also at the heart of the debate.
European representatives demand that AI development be associated with monitoring and responsibility mechanisms, without preventing the competitiveness of continent companies.
Discussions have not produced a final financing agreement, but have highlighted pressure on the European Union to act faster.
