Did you know Sam Altman Warns EU AI Regulations Could Limit Access, Urges Lawmakers to Act
Sam Altman is making it very clear to the European Union that their
growing list of regulations might restrict the region’s access to AI .
The news comes as the OpenAI CEO was seen delivering a speech at a German University, Technische
Universität Berlin, where he shared that he’d love to design the EU
version of Stargate. The new AI infrastructure project is based in the
US but such advancements totally depend on the rules in the EU.
Altman
mentioned that he would like to deploy products across the EU in the
swiftest manner possible. He wants to do what’s best for the region and
the people but it’s now up to lawmakers in the region to see what kind
of rules they are setting up.
OpenAI mentioned how it rolled out data residency in the EU for various products such as ChatGPT Edu, API Platform, and the ChatGPT Enterprise. The goal was to assist companies working in this part of the world to assist with data protection. Hence, they are now looking forward to collaborations across the EU and different places around the globe.
They similarly hope to maintain standards of privacy as well as security with compliance in the region and ensure things run smoothly on both ends. Remember, it was claimed a few days back how the EU regulations prepared the latest guidance and covered banned uses related to AI as part of the major effort to enforce this law.
The new AI Act restricts actions such as online data scraping to produce facial recognition which came into play starting this month. We also saw how the EC is ready to roll out key guidance on the way rules must be applied.
During
the year’s start, it was shared how the US President’s decision to
share more about Stargate could give rise to further calls from EU CEOs
for a similar design regarding AI in the region.
As per the SAP
CEO, EU lawmakers and companies might start working to implement AI as
this tech could boost competition in the industry.
