Eurocrats plot to hobble US AI leadership on our own shores

The European Union is intensifying its regulatory efforts to undermine U.S. dominance in artificial intelligence and digital technology. By establishing a new office in Silicon Valley, the EU aims to pressure American tech firms into compliance with its stringent regulations. This move could jeopardize the U.S.'s competitive edge in AI, potentially benefiting countries like China that are rapidly advancing in computational capabilities.

The EU's approach includes hiring an AI policy officer to enforce compliance with its AI Act, further tightening its grip on American innovation. Recent actions, such as a warning letter sent to Elon Musk regarding content moderation on his platform, illustrate the EU's aggressive stance. The Biden administration's quiet collaboration with EU officials raises concerns about the future of U.S. innovation in the face of increasing regulatory burdens.

• EU's Silicon Valley office aims to enforce compliance with its AI regulations.

• Elon Musk faces threats from EU over content moderation on his platform.
