Mandate that EU member states allocate 0.5% of their total public spending to open-sourced AI initiatives.

eu/acc

To foster innovation and ensure transparency in AI development across the European Union, a compelling proposal emerges:

Public Money = Public Code = Public AI.

This directive would:

  1. Accelerate AI innovation by pooling resources and expertise across member states.

  2. Enhance transparency and accountability in AI development, crucial for building public trust.

  3. Reduce duplication of efforts and costs by promoting collaboration and knowledge sharing.

  4. Ensure AI technologies developed with public funds benefit all citizens and businesses.

Implementing this mandate could involve:

  • Creating a dedicated EU-wide open-source AI repository.

  • Establishing collaborative platforms for researchers and developers across member states.

  • Developing AI solutions tailored to specific European needs and values.

By embracing this "Public Money = Public Code = Public AI" approach, the EU can lead in responsible AI development while fostering a more innovative, transparent, and competitive AI ecosystem

    Absolute socialist crap.
    States just need to get out of the fucking the way and let private enterprise function freely.

    Just tax less and let individuals invest in whatever they want and let bad investors be punished or rewarded by the market, be it AI or anything else.

    By the way, LLMs are not remotely close to AGI, so don’t even come with “AI threat” from China.
