Question for written answer  E-000341/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Nikolaos Anadiotis (NI)

Europe[1] appears to be significantly lagging behind in investment in and development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies compared to the United States and China[2] and the competition between them[3], impacting not only technological progress but also the ability to attract skilled human resources. This has negative implications for the future of the EU.

In this context, what are the Commission’s strategies for: a) strengthening investment in the field of AI in order to make Europe competitive at the global level, b) creating an attractive framework to draw in talent and develop skills in AI within Europe, and c) promoting ethics, transparency and security in AI technologies, as well as harmonising their development and use with the values and rights of European citizens?
