This week, tech journalist Samuel Burke joins us to explore the innovation gap that’s holding Europe back in the AI race—while America and China seem to be thriving—and what it means for the future. In his latest article forFortune, the three-time Emmy Award-winning journalist, who spent years as a tech correspondent at CNN, examines how the EU and U.K.’s complex regulatory landscape is slowing AI adoption in Europe, while other regions race ahead. While Europe’s leadership in consumer protection, such as the GDPR’s global data privacy standards, is well recognized, some regulations come at a steep cost. These hurdles are delaying the latest AI technologies, with real-world consequences as the Fourth Industrial Revolution accelerates, risking Europe’s position in the global AI race.
