Governments in the U.S., UK, and EU have parted the metaphorical AI waves for Big Tech – and these giants are walking through while the rest of us tread water in the ocean.
Governments are regulating – and deregulating – specifically for these firms, reorganising national energy infrastructure for them, and spending billions of taxpayers’ money on the massive infrastructure projects they’re asking for.
Under Trump alone, U.S. states have faced a 10-year ban on introducing AI regulation, and over a dozen federal sites have been designated for datacenter development.
Big Tech valuations are skyrocketing. Meanwhile, most businesses are failing to adopt AI or to get a return on their investments in it.
To me, it looks increasingly obvious that our governments have sold us and AI out to Big Tech. And it’s high time they switched the script and started building their AI strategies around supporting the everyday enterprise, startup, and SMB.
