Episode 2: Towards a European AI initiative: options, odds and objectives

54 min • 12 juli 2024

In this second episode of the CEPS Tech Podcast series on AI we will be looking at various proposals to launch a large-scale initiative on AI in Europe in the years to come. Does Europe need an “AI Moonshot” to catch up with other global powers? What characteristics should the moonshot have? We compare in particular the recent proposal tabled by advisors to the European Commission, to create a “CERN for AI in science”; the proposal by the scientific community to launch a moonshot to create alternatives to non-European generative AI models; and proposals to fund a pan-European Digital Public Infrastructure.  

 

Our host Tom Parker is joined by co-host Andrea Renda, Director of Research at CEPS, a well-known expert in AI governance and policy and Professor at the European University Institute. Joining them both to help unpick this topic are two leading experts in the AI field. Holger Hoos, Alexander von Humboldt Professor of AI at RWTH Aachen University (Germany) and Director of Research at CLAIRE who shares his insights on a Moonshot for AI and what Europe needs to do to not fall further behind in the AI field. Adriana Groh, Co-founder of the Sovereign Tech Fund which is focused on supporting the development, improvement, and maintenance of open digital infrastructure with the gaol to sustainably strengthen the open-source ecosystem by focusing on security, resilience, technological diversity as well as the coding talents.
