"Innovate or Die"* - Understanding Leadership And The Winner's Mentality
AI: Beyond Efficiency to Revolutionary Change With Jorge from AWS
A few years ago, European politicians likened the tech race to a soccer match against the United States. They admitted to losing the first round—internet technologies—but were quick to claim the “Internet of Things” as the field for the second half comeback. Yet, as we analyze the progress, it’s evident that Europe didn’t just lose the second round; it’s barely kept pace in the initial one and is now missing out on a whole new level of the game: Artificial Intelligence.
This blog is a 2m read.
“Innovate or die!”*: To win the innovation game, a region must create an environment where startups flourish. Startups are not just small new businesses; they are the lifeblood of technological advancement and economic dynamism. They introduce groundbreaking technologies and business models that disrupt existing markets and spur economic growth. Hence, a nation has to be excelled in creating a conducive ecosystem for these innovators through substantial venture capital investment, a culture that celebrates risk-taking and entrepreneurship, and policies that generally support rapid business growth.
Europe rather regulates than innovates: Wondering how Europe can make money with regulations (apart form lawyers)? - Me, too. Anyway: While Silicon Valley continues to be a powerhouse of AI research and innovation, Europe seems to be stuck in a regulatory loop** and further drives down productivity compared the other regions in the world.***
How can you make a difference by yourself? Simple: Become a founder and build something people want with AI technology.
