🚨 Europe Must Act Now: A Call for a ‘CERN for AI’ 🚨 The world is moving fast in AI, and Europe risks falling behind. The U.S. is making massive investments in AI infrastructure, and China is rapidly advancing in generative AI—meanwhile, Europe faces a triple threat: 🔹 Loss of strategic sovereignty – Dependence on foreign AI tech like ChatGPT & NVIDIA makes Europe vulnerable. 🔹 Loss of cultural sovereignty – AI models reflect the priorities of their creators—are Europe's values represented? 🔹 Loss of economic competitiveness – Without decisive action, European industries risk stagnation in the AI revolution. To safeguard our future, CAIRNE (formerly CLAIRE) calls for a bold, coordinated effort: a ‘CERN for AI’—a European hub for AI research and innovation that ensures trustworthy, safe, and sustainable AI made in Europe, along with 6 steps for building such a major hotbed for AI talent, research and innovation. 📢 Read our open letter: #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Europe #CERNforAI #Innovation #TechSovereignty #FutureofAI

Trump’s $500B AI Plan: A Game-Changer for Global AI Leadership Last week, President Donald Trump announced a $500 billion AI infrastructure project, kicking off an AI race that has left Europe reeling. With plans to build a massive data center in Texas and solidify U.S. dominance in artificial intelligence, the scale of this investment has sent shockwaves through global tech and policy circles. While the U.S. races ahead, Europe is facing tough questions about its ambitions. 🗣️ @HolgerHoos Hoos, AI professor at @RWTH Aachen University and chair of CAIRNE, a leading network of AI research labs, put it bluntly: "The EU’s investment is several orders of magnitude below what has just been announced in the U.S. shows that the EU doesn't have enough ambition." Similarly, venture capitalist Miele said: "The strategic relevance of AI has not yet been understood at the political level." The disparity in ambition and investment underscores the challenge Europe faces in staying competitive in this critical technology space. Will this announcement spur Europe to re-evaluate its AI strategy and push for greater investments?

🚀 Stargate: The $500B AI Infrastructure Project Shaping the Future of Technology 🚀🌍 US President Donald Trump has unveiled Stargate, the largest AI infrastructure project in history, with an unprecedented $500 billion private sector investment aimed at propelling the United States to the forefront of artificial intelligence innovation. However, this ambitious project raises important questions about global AI dynamics. 🧠 Professor @HolgerHoos a leading expert in AI at @RWTH and Chair of the Board of Confederation of Laboratories for Artificial Intelligence Research in Europe (CAIRNE), shared key insights: 📌 "The risk is when cutting-edge AI technology is controlled by few companies all headquartered in the US." 📌 Hoos emphasised the impact on technology sovereignty for other nations, warning that sectors dependent on AI could lose competitiveness without access to diverse, globally influenced AI systems. 📌 He highlighted that AI technologies, such as ChatGPT, often reflect the political, social, and cultural values of the country where they are developed, underscoring the need for a balanced global approach to AI leadership. This initiative will undoubtedly have massive economic implications and reshape the global technology landscape. As AI continues to transform industries, it's vital for the international community to collaborate, ensuring innovation reflects a wide spectrum of values and benefits all nations. 🔗 Read more: #AIInnovation #Stargate #ArtificialIntelligence #AILeadership #GlobalAI #TechnologySovereignty #DigitalFuture
