Mistral CEO says Europe has 2 years to build AI infrastructure or face permanent dependence on U.S.
Europe has only two years to build its own AI infrastructure before becoming permanently dependent on U.S. big tech, Mistral CEO Arthur Mensch has warned, Business Insider reported. Speaking at a French National Assembly hearing on digital sovereignty and AI, he said the outcome would be decided within two years. Mensch said Europe risks losing control not only of AI models but also of energy and computing infrastructure, and warned it could become a “vassal” if it keeps importing U.S. digital services.
