1. It's a nice start, but the EU has to scale to Manhattan Project levels in order to properly compete with the US and China.
2. A credible scale effort for EU own silicon for AI Compute, wouldn't hurt either.
3. And this can only be achieved by vertical integration to combat fragmentation.

- Anonasty 1y agoThey are not "competing" with US and China since this is not a business venture.
- fulafel 1y agoGood to distinguish between publicly funded research models (like this one) and commercial ones (like Mistral in France). What are the chinese and usa public research models like?
- t43562 1y agoThe Germans do have some neurpmorphic hardware. It might be smarter to invest in that to avoid having to build a lot of new power stations.

- DrNosferatu 1y agoI propose an European AI-only "NASA" style agency that would have a frontier LLM-"Apollo Program" goal. It would subcontract the several blocks it needs across EU member states. Would you prefer European AI sovereignty with 15% overhead costs from geographic distribution, or 100% dependence on Nvidia/OpenAI with zero European industrial base?
