"AI is not an inevitable force that we need to react to, but these are highly political decisions that need to be made." #FrederikeKaltheuner, 2026 https://www.techpolicy.press/is-europe-getting-ai-wrong/ I want this on a t-shirt! It's a timely rebuttal to the almost religious mania gripping the political class, with deeply distributing consequences on the ground, as described by Nikhil Suresh; https://ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/ai-mania-is-eviscerating-global-decision-making/ #EU #TechPolicy #AI

    "But I think there are two questions here. One is obviously to build scale in compute because Europe is behind. And then the other question is who controls the infrastructure and the distribution and the ecosystem?" #RamshaJahangir, 2026 https://www.techpolicy.press/is-europe-getting-ai-wrong/ The second one is an important question. The other one totally ignores the point Kaltheuner just made (see previous post), and makes some highly questionable assumptions. Does the EU actually *need* more hyperscale "compute"? (1/?)
