European Digital Rights @edri summarizes, and questions, how the @EUCommission plans to deregulate " #AI ", in a frenzy: "Experience and acceleration centres" for "AI" – push it down every throat, infect every governmental process asap "Data Centres Acceleration Zones" – fast-track permissions; guarantee energy supply on an unprecedented scale; fast-track environmental assessments "Single information points" to inform the public, "with the aim of increasing public acceptance of the data centre project" – "AI" propaganda against local protests, to be sponsored by all EU citizens Organized, irresponsible, incompetent coercion of EU citizens, out of panic and FOMO. Delivered as a hasty, rash attack on existing legislation, and on hard-won rights. https://edri.org/our-work/the-cloud-and-ai-development-act-cada-represents-everything-thats-wrong-with-europes-approach-to-digital-sovereignty/ Ceterum censeo: The EU commission needs to be reigned in by #democracy. #EUpol
