Stefano MarinelliI'm not a fan of bureaucracy.
I see the friction, the delays. Sometimes, it feels like an "industry" built to create pointless jobs. Yet, there are moments when regulation is vital.
Europe gives us the DMA, the GDPR, and a wave of other rules meant to protect us. Are they imperfect? Absolutely. They often overcomplicate things without giving us a real advantage. But it's something.
I don't believe in racing without a finish line. Progress is good, but not "at all costs". Every action has a reaction. We should be aware of it.
The EU system tries to safeguard citizens. Other hyper-growth countries take a different path, and the consequences can be brutal. Apparently more liberal, but only apparently. Imagine an American friend being denied health coverage because an AI on their device (or in the "cloud") flagged a text where they mentioned having a "persistent headache".
I've recently seen the real-world harm that targeted commercial algorithms can inflict on people in moments of fragility. That’s not the future I want.
Yes, Europe needs to accelerate.
But it must hold onto its core values. Leaner processes, sure, but zero compromises.
Just because my car can top well over 200 km/h doesn't mean I should drive at that speed everywhere, just for the sake of productivity.
