« Le grand RDV de l’IA » – BSMART
Constantin Pavléas took part in the program “Le grand RDV de l'IA” on BSMART in the company of Jean-Baptiste Kempf to discuss 3 major news items at the heart of innovation and European issues:
🔹 Elon Musk's nomination and impact on AI:
“We need a wake-up call”
The appointment of the business tycoon to the incoming Trump administration, tasked with deregulating and optimizing the operation of the federal government, takes the opposite tack to the current situation in Europe. As the Draghi Report pointed out, Europe is suffering from a competitiveness deficit, and is struggling under a pile of regulations. While Europe's vision of ethics, humanism and the protection of individuals is fair, laudable and necessary, we must not lose sight of the overall constraints imposed on European businesses and innovation. According to the Trendeo barometer for 2024, European investments abroad ($412 billion) far outstrip intra-European investments ($256 billion), and are mainly directed towards the United States. This may be explained by the rise of protectionism, but over-regulation is certainly a factor. We need a European leap forward to preserve European innovation and technology.
🔹 AI at the Paris Commercial Court:
“A very fine example to be extended to other courts”
From 2025, the Paris Commercial Court will use AI to lighten certain administrative tasks of the consular jurisdiction, including the now-automated routing of incoming files to the appropriate chamber, and will facilitate the work of judges in issuing injunctions to pay. The Paris Commercial Court's initiative is to be applauded, and we hope it will set an example for other French courts. Surrounded by the necessary safeguards and limited to administrative tasks and simple but time-consuming procedures, AI will be a valuable tool for 21st-century justice.
🔹 AI made in France:
“a strategic European issue, we need to be on the whole value chain”.
To compete with the great powers, Europe needs to boost its start-ups and aim for technological autonomy across the entire value chain. Investment and support for innovation are crucial.
