The EU has launched its AI Continent Action Plan which outlines a set of bold actions to turn EU into a global leader in AI, including: (1) building a large-scale AI data and computing infrastructure (€10 billion for 13 AI Factories by 2026, plans for more powerful AI Gigafactories, €20 billion InvestAI, and the Cloud and AI Development Act aiming to triple data center capacity in 5-7 years); (2) increasing access to large and high-quality data (through Data Labs and a Data Union Strategy); (3) developing algorithms and fostering AI adoption in strategic EU sectors (via the Apply AI Strategy in areas like healthcare and manufacturing); (4) strengthening AI skills and talents (through a Talent Pool, ‘MSCA Choose Europe’, AI fellowships, the AI Skills Academy, a generative AI degree pilot, and reskilling support via European Digital Innovation Hubs); and (5) simplifying regulations (by launching the AI Act Service Desk in 2025 and providing free tools and advice to businesses).
