Transformative AI Strategy for Europe: trade compute for frontier model access, end sovereignty theatre
Afinetheorem · x · 2026-09-14
A group of researchers has published a Transformative AI Strategy for Europe, built over months of consultation with governments. Contributor antondleicht outlines three recommendations:
- Strike compute-for-access deals with American AI developers: trade datacenter sites for assured access to frontier models
- Form an alliance of like-minded middle powers to coordinate on supply chain bottlenecks and resist coercion
- Either genuinely spend a trillion euros to build frontier AI or don't — and stop the sovereignty theatre
The author argues that Europe taking AGI seriously requires rebuilding the transatlantic alliance grounded in trust backed by mutual commitments and hard leverage. The broader report covers securing Europe's share of global AI compute and preparing European institutions for a transformative AI world.
