<![CDATA[Europe, the AI Continent.]]>Europe, the AI Continent.

One year ago, we launched the AI Continent Action Plan. Since then, we have made huge strides:

✅ 19 AI factories are now live across EU countries.
✅ We established the AI Skills Academy to train experts.
✅ The AI Omnibus is cutting costs for business.
✅ We have earmarked €1 billion to support AI adoption in industry.

We are building a secure and innovative AI future for Europe.

Here's how 👉 https://link.europa.eu/nj3VH9

I don’t know if this account is actually monitored, or just a publishing place, but you may have noticed that this post has received almost overwhelmingly negative responses.

You could disregard this as Mastodon bias, but keep in mind that the biggest bias on Mastodon is that people who understand and built core parts of the information technology that you use every day are massively over represented. This is probably the only place you will get a lot of replies from people who both understand technology and do not have a financial incentive to hype things to get large amounts of government funding.

It's a complete waste of money, energy and talent.

Stop believing their hype and hypocrisy.

And fall behind the US with what, a recession? OpenAI is so deep in debt they'd need to become more profitable than Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon combined just to not go deeper in the red. Anthropic didn't publish any financial data but I expect them to be much the same. They're a money furnace, plain and simple, and once you have to pay for these models the full amount thag it takes to run them, they stop being so amazing for productivity brcause a human could do better work for cheaper.]]>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://fedi.catto.garden/objects/5e408459-fa1a-441e-a661-9d85bfd1d89dhttps://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://fedi.catto.garden/objects/5e408459-fa1a-441e-a661-9d85bfd1d89dFri, 10 Apr 2026 06:56:18 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to Europe, the AI Continent. on Fri, 10 Apr 2026 06:54:33 GMT]]>@EUCommission We have a lot more topic requiering funding more urgently than adding more AI slop.

I have a simple suggestion, whatever you do, make it open-source and make AI training and inference available to regular folks.

Don't build a single, centralized model.

We need an alternative that's not a dystopian

I am mostly against the usage of AI and tech in general in education where it's not really needed (ex. students with disabilities or for coding classes) and in art, but for productivity? That is awesome

But anyways, if you distill the model, there's no need for a data center, so who cares.

Might just need one or two data centers for training purposes.

Regarding putting things into orbit - the costs would be silly at best unless you do all kinds of jugglery like ship the model with 100 other useful things
