The article discusses the growing global competition in artificial intelligence (AI), focusing on the rivalry between the United States and China. Two major AI summits are taking place this week: the UN's AI for Good summit in Geneva, emphasizing governance, security, and ethics, and the RAISE summit in Paris, which focuses more on investment, companies, and industrial power. The article highlights how Chinese AI models are gaining traction due to their lower costs and openness, sometimes being open-source, making them attractive for developers and companies like Airbnb, Pinterest, and Uber Eats. In France, some government agencies have tested Alibaba’s Qwen model. However, concerns arise over data sovereignty and reliance on foreign models. Europe aims to reduce dependency on both American and Chinese models by fostering its own AI actors, such as French companies Mistral AI and H Company.
