Is Europe an AI underdog or an "Invisible Giant"? 🇪🇺 Next week, @dealroomco and @Prosusgroup release the 2026 State of AI in Europe - The Invisible Giant report. We’re hitting the road to share the data and answer the big questions: ⚡️ Is the window still open for Europe to compete? ⚡️ Do we have the urgency and speed to match our talent? ⚡️ What’s next for world models and vertical AI? 💰 How much capital is needed to win globally? Join us in person to get the fresh data from Dealroom first - RSVP and Limited seats! 📍 Amsterdam | 16 March @ Prosus HQ 📍 London | 24 March @ The Jellicoe 📍 Brussels | 31 March @ Venue TBD

We’re currently prioritizing 3 types of hires at @gen_intuition 1) top researchers in world modeling / policy learning (ideally both) 2) engineers with deep exp in complex 3d sim environments ML cloud infra. Backend engine. 3) large scale data ops (eng/teleop/etc) Dm open!

One of Europe's main priorities should be setting up sovereign semiconductor fabs. It's insanity that we have the only company making the machines, but we don't use them ourselves. Europe should dominate the entire semiconductor sector. 🇪🇺

🚀 AI & Policy: Scaling AI in Europe: Join Us in Amsterdam! Europe is at a pivotal moment in the global AI race, and on 11 Dec we’re bringing the people shaping that future together under one roof to answer: 👉 How can Europe capture the benefits of AI and scale with confidence, speed, and global competitiveness? Plus: networking, debates, and space to connect. In partnership with @Prosus_Ventures, the @EU_Commission, Innovation Radar Bridge and StepUp Startups initiative. Register: luma.com/631cs8zm

I'm currently reading a comparison of health systems globally. There are about 4 sentences that really sum it up. 1/4: “The United States is the only developed country that lets insurance companies profit from basic health coverage”

Global State of AI & Tech 🚀 - Sept 14, 2025 open.substack.com/pub/sebvae…

Americans/MAGA’s are obsessed with bragging about GDP per capita. And they like claiming their poorest state is more rich than any country in Europe. It’s spinning data. Here’s the truth 👇

“AC this, wash dryer that, US woohoo, EU boohoo” - Why are we eating this brand-warfare from the outside about us up? Europe has the strongest precision manufacturing in the world, we have leading teams in AI, CV, robotics. Europe is a leader in Automation and Frontier Tech! Not a single NVIDIA chip could be produced without European machines. Not a single American cloud, robotics, or deep-tech firm would operate without European manufacturing or suppliers. But we are too humble. Brainwashed to never celebrate Europe. By outsiders and our local politicians. Time for a change. Europe is the birthplace of industrialization. The home of frontier tech. Time, we act like it. Welcome to the real Europe! 🔥🇪🇺
