I said apple does not do that. Apple invented the smartphone before samsung or anyone.
There is no such thing as "slow" in business. If you re slow you go out of business, you re no longer a business.
There is only one AI race. There is no second round. If you stay out of the race, you will be forever indebted to the AI winner, in the same way that we are entirely dependent on US internet technology currently (and this very forum)

Correct me, but I don't think such alignment between Switzerland and the rest of the EEA on LLM/"AI" technology does currently exist (though there may and likely will be some in the future) and it cannot explain the inevitable EEA wide release that is going to follow in a few weeks, as always. The "EU/EEA/European regulations prevent company from offering software product here" shouts have always been loud, no matter how often we see it turn out to have been merely a delayed launch with no regulatory reasoning.
If this had been specific to countries that have adopted the "AI Act", I'd be more than willing to accept that this delay could be due them needing to ensure full compliance, but just like in the past when OpenAI delayed a launch across EU member states and the UK, this is unlikely. My personal, though 100% unsourced thesis, remains, that this staggered rollout is rooted in them wanting to manage the compute capacity they have. Taking both the Americas and all of Europe on at once may not be ideal.
The European livestyle isn't god given and has to be paid for. It's a luxury and I'm still puzzled that people don't get that we can't afford it without an economy.
Europe runs 3% deficits and gets universal healthcare, tuition free universities, 25+ days paid vacation, working trains, and no GoFundMe for surgeries.
The U.S. runs 6–8% deficits and gets vibes, weapons, and insulin at $300 a vial.
Who's on the unsustainable path and really overspending?
If the average interest rate on U.S. government debt rises to 14%, then 100% of all federal tax revenue (around $4.8 trillion/year) will be consumed just to pay interest on the $34 trillion national debt. As soon as the current Fed Chairman gets fired, practically a certainty by now, nobody will buy US bonds for less than 10 to 15% interest.
We'll only be able to afford our lifestyles by letting OpenAI's bots make spreadsheets that aren't accurate or useful outside of tricking people into thinking you did your job?
If predictions of AI optimists come true, it's going to be an economic nuclear bomb. If not, economic effects of AI will not necessarily be that important
Well, when all the US is going to be turbo-fascist and controlled by facial recognition and AI reading all your email and text messages to know what you're thinking of the Great Leader Trump, we'll be happy to have those regulations in Europe
It's not the Manhattan Project. I'm flagging your comment because it is insubstantial flamebait. We don't even know how valuable this tech is, you're jumping to conclusions.
