At A.I. Summit in Paris, a Push for Innovation Before Regulation
Briefly

The A.I. race intensifies between the U.S. and China, but President Macron emphasized Europe's potential during an A.I. summit in Paris. Leaders, tech executives, and experts gathered to discuss the implications and future of A.I. technology. Macron urged Europe to invest substantially in its A.I. capabilities, asserting that the continent is not falling behind and stressing the importance of independence from superpowers. The summit included key figures like Sam Altman and China's vice premier, highlighting the global stakes in A.I. development.
We respect and want to work with the United States, we want to work with China, but we don't want to depend on anyone.
There's a race to scale, Mr. Macron told France 2 television on Sunday night under the soaring steel and glass roof of the Grand Palais.
Are we completely behind the curve? No, Mr. Macron insisted as he urged Europe to invest heavily in its own A.I. abilities.
Attendees at the summit include Sam Altman, the chief executive of OpenAI; Zhang Guoqing, China's vice premier; and Vice President JD Vance.
