- A group of independent experts published "A Transformative AI Strategy for Europe", drafted May–September 2026 with no funding or editorial direction from companies, governments, or EU institutions, backed by prominent figures including Leo Varadkar.
- Context: Dario Amodei's essay calling for the industry to slow AI capability gains drew rare quick agreement from both Sam Altman and Elon Musk, days after Jacob Coxon resigned from Anthropic over extinction fears — one of the strongest policymaker and journalist responses to AI warnings yet.
- The poster wants Europe to join the conversation, noting it must differ from the US framing.
- The strategy focuses on how Europe can build agency and economic strength, protect citizens from AI-enabled shocks, and create robust public institutions.
