Thoughts on this one ?

The EU lags the US in AI, and in technology in general. The EU is fearful of AI and wants to rein it in.

What does Germany have other than aging infrastructure, SAP software, and diesel technology it is desperate to protect.

I’ve talked this before, but Microsoft, Google, Amazon. and Facebook could not exist in the EU because the EU would bust the corporations up in the name of increasing competition before the companies ever got big in the first place.
