Prince Constantine criticizes the government’s efforts to impose regulations in the field of artificial intelligence. The leader of Techleap.nl, a backed organization for technology startups, looks at the US and England and sees that there is a lot that is possible in this sector.
As a result, they have also made further progress in artificial intelligence, says the special envoy at technology conference The Next Web.
“For example, our Foreign Minister Alexandra van Heufelen (of digitalization) was previously only negative about artificial intelligence,” says Konstantin. “You can regulate technology here, but then you will bypass the Netherlands and then you will have no control at all,” says the prince feelingly. “With this policy, we find it strange that the United States owns all the major platforms.” Ironically. “We’re just talking about the risky side of AI here.”
Constantine did not comment further on the announced European legislation to regulate ChatGPT and other forms of artificial intelligence. Van Heuvelen said in a response on Wednesday that he was “proud” that the European Parliament was the first in the world to adopt rules to regulate artificial intelligence, for example in the area of privacy.
Discussions
The US and UK may be ahead in technology, but Konstantin sees some countries in the EU also being successful, such as Estonia and Sweden. According to him, the Netherlands is not doing badly, but startups here sporadically develop into larger companies.
In the UK, for example, Konstantin sees a prime minister intervening in discussions about technology. “This is very important. This is the world in which citizens and businesses live. Our government is still inadequate there. It is not that easy, just look at the profile of our politicians. There are very few who really know about artificial intelligence. In England, the technology has become More established already.”
