Why Transatlantic AI eXchange
Harnessing AI disruptions through collaboration
This building momentum requires a platform for the USA and Europe/Germany to stimulate and coordinate this cooperation: The Transatlantic AI eXchange
The aim of this series is to stimulate exchange on AI between actors from both sides of the Atlantic and provide fertile grounds for entrepreneurs, researchers, investors, and policy makers to build long term partnerships.
- Collaboration between governments, research institutions, and technology companies is necessary to benefit from AI and minimize its risks.
- Flows of data, compute power, talent, and capital for AI align with geographic boundaries incidentally rather than fundamentally.
- Germany has created a conducive policy framework to promote AI as a national priority through the “AI made in Germany” strategy, which is linked to the EU’s AI policy and regional AI governance frameworks.
- The US is realigning around AI under the Biden administration, and American companies need new access to the EU’s slowly integrating digital market after Brexit.
- Private-public partnerships with European players could provide innovative solutions for protecting privacy, securing agencies, and preventing bias in the digital economy.
