IAN LANGSDON AFP Arrival of J.D. Vance at the Grand Palais in Paris on Tuesday, February 11
Malaise at the AI Summit in Paris.
While the reception protocol for Vice President J. D. Vance during his visit to Paris was not the warmest, it was diplomatically acceptable, as political analysts on TF1 were able to point out.
Despite the disgruntled states, Vance did not lose his smile.
But his speech was all the more firm in front of a global, even globalist, gathering that had come to fight AI and its desire for emancipation.
And von der Leyen looked at her shoes when the vice president insisted that the US administration would not accept foreign governments tightening the noose on US tech companies operating internationally, saying that this would be a mistake not only for the US, but also for the countries concerned, criticising European legislation such as the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as onerous rules that stifle innovation and create unnecessary obstacles for US companies, going so far as to express reservations about European efforts to impose strict regulation on AI.He ends by emphasizing that excessive regulation could lead to slowing down innovation and paralyzing promising technology. Vance advocates for international regulatory regimes that foster the creation of AI technologies rather than hinder them, calling on European partners to approach this new frontier with optimism rather than apprehension.
The message was clear… and without waiting for Macron or V.D.L.’s speech. whose title it came to conclude anything is unclear, he flew off to other horizons.
Neither the United States nor Great Britain will ultimately sign this Paris declaration “open, inclusive, transparent, ethical, safe, secure and trustworthy”
The situation seems to have changed.
