If your criticism of "big tech" is merely a result of the unhappiness about the fact that Meta, Google and Microsoft aren't EU-corporations you are missing the point.
There is nothing that indicates that SAP or Deutsche Telekom would hesitate a second at the chance of becoming equally violent and exploitative forces.
The solution to Big Tech isn't EU Big Tech. It's de-commercialisation and democratization of tech.
In case you need a real good reason for "Why Digital Sovereignty now", watch those 20 minutes...Nothing to add.
This whole dinner is a disgrace and a time document we should save, print and hand out to all european lawmakers.
Google-CEO Pichai: "I would echo what Sergey said. Uh, I think it's the AI moment is one of the most transformative moments any of us have ever seen or will see in our lifetimes. So making sure the US is at the forefront and I think your administration is investing a lot already. The AI action plan under your leadership, I think, is a great start and we look forward to working together and thanks for your leadership."
Microsoft-CEO Nadella: "Well, uh, Mr. President, it's such an honor to be here and the incredible work that your administration has done to support the semiconductor industry. You know, we're building the brains behind all of the wonderful AI that's being built here and I think the amount of acceleration that we've seen just in the few short months that uh the administration has been in place is really uh, we're so grateful for that support and we had a wonderful event uh this afternoon with the First Lady's support of the AI education plan. So I think the main message is we are all in to make sure that America wins the AI race and it's it's an honor to be here. Thank you very much."
#Apple-CEO Cook: "Uh, I want to thank you for setting the tone such that we could make a major investment in the United States and have some key manufacturing advanced manufacturing here. I think that says a lot about your focus and your leadership and your focus on innovation. I also want to thank you for helping American companies around the world."
OpenAI-CEO Altman: "First of all, to echo the comments uh of Tim and others, thank you so much for getting us all together and thank you for being such a pro-business, pro-innovation president. It's a very refreshing change. We're very excited to see what you're doing to make all of our companies and our our entire country so successful. The investment that's happening here, uh the ability to get the the power and the industry back in the United States, I think this will set us up for, you know, a long period of great success uh leading the world and I don't think that would be happening now without your without your leadership."
But we Europeans should all trust your Sovereign Cloud/Airgapped Cloud-Products which is of course in the best of our interests...

Nothing happened before January 1st 1970 and there will be nothing to be concerned about after January 19th 2038.

#UnplugTrump zeigt, wie man sich digital von Trump und Tech-Oligarchen abkoppelt – für Datenschutz, Demokratie und eine gerechtere digitale Zukunft.

Die Schweiz wird aus der EU-Initiative zur Erforschung von Quantumtechnologien auch bei der Teilnahme von Horizon Europe bei bestimmten kritischen Bereichen ausgeschlossen.
EU sagt dazu: Aus Gründen der technologischen Souverenität!!
Eigentlich logisch: EU will hochsichere Komm-Infrastruktur bauen. Da ist ein Drittstaat ein Sicherheitsrisiko.
Das Abseitsstehen hat halt seinen Preis.
Kommunikative Probleme der Neuzeit:
"Digitalisierung" sagen, aber "Automatisierung" meinen
"digital" sagen, aber "online" meinen
"online" sagen, aber "cloudbasiert" meinen
"cloud" sagen, aber "im Browser bedienbar" meinen
"KI" sagen, aber "Algorithmus" meinen
"smart" sagen, aber "messbar" meinen
Kein Wunder, dass ständig falsche oder zu kurz gedachte Entscheidungen getroffen werden.
Haben sich die Trump-Fanboys von der SVP schon dafür bedankt? 🤨🤷♂️
«Neu dürfen nur noch Länder, die als Verbündete gelten, auf diese Computerchips zugreifen. Und die Schweiz zählt nicht dazu.»
Auf den Punkt! Besser kann man es nicht erklären.
