Beyond ChatGPT: Europe Needs to Act Now to Ensure Technological Sovereignty in Next-Generation AI
We co-hosted a half-day event on May 25th at the European Parliament, titled Beyond ChatGPT: How can Europe get in front of the pack on Generative AI Models?, organized by a broad consortium from science and civil society.
