    Tech companies from across the world, including giants like Alphabet, Meta, Mistral Al and ASML have been urging the European Commission to delay rolling out the Al Act, saying it will hurt Europe’s chances to compete in the fast-evolving Al arena.

    This alone tells me enough that rolling out this legislation should be top priority.

      I just can’t get over how little we hear from academics RE: AI. It shows a clear disinterest and I feel like if they did bother to say anything it would be, “Proceed with caution while we study this further.”

      Instead it’s always the giant corporations with vested interest in this technology succeeding. It’s just so painfully transparent.
