Emmanuel Macron wants the European Union to become competitive in the race in a … trophy of artificial intelligence. Investors, however, do not hide their reservations because of bureaucracy and high taxation in Old Epirus.

In Paris, the Action Synod for Artificial Intelligence and the French capital are being given leaders from all over the world, leading companies-colossal executives as well as academics in progress. The aim is to discuss hopes and dangers for artificial intelligence (TN).

French President, Emmanuel Macron, first, placed Europe again on the map of technological developments And this is because it announced that France will quickly move its proposals in the area.

It was preceded by the choice of the French president to put his hand deep in his pocket by investing 109 billion euros. However, for Emmanuel Macron this is not enough.

The French president calls on other members of the European Union to stretch their ears and hear his calls for “more Europe” in the area. He proposes a better coordinated and therefore simplified approach to European Member States to the ongoing technological race.

“European Commission President Ursula von der Laien will announce the European strategy for artificial intelligence,” Mr Macron said, adding that “this strategy will be a one. unique opportunity for Europe accelerate its gait, simplify its regulatory rules, deepen the single market and also invest in its technological capabilities. “

It is for the president of France for this meeting to act as a “alarm clock” for Europe and the aim is to engage a common strategy that will allow the Old Epirus to become competitive in the digital world, which is currently under the case. Hegemony of the United States and China.

In order to make this possible, however, it must, he said, simplify the regulatory rules in both France and the EU. And so that artificial intelligence can “run” in areas such as health and/or energy.

Target also, added, should be the increase in economic incentivesto increase investment in turn, while key – as investors point out – will be a reduction in high taxation.

As Emmanuel Macron explained, France is able to lead Europe in the field, partially because the country’s electricity is produced by 70% of its nuclear power (which allows it to feed data centers without endangering its national goals for green energy) and on the other hand, because he already threw 109 billion euros in piggy bank – an investment including the United Arab Emirates funding of data centers in the country.

“I have a good friend on the other side of the Atlantic, who says ‘Do drilling’. Here, there is absolutely no reason for drilling, “he said, adding” let’s just put the cable into the socket “.

The equation also added the fact that Paris can work with the US and Asian partners of the Union for the construction of chips in Old Epirus and – adding that France is training 40,000 data experts annually – emphasized that the number will increase in them. 100,000 a year.

“Long live artificial intelligence. Long live France, “said Emmanuel Macron, recalling that Europe should not be missing from the New Age digital race.
