Special Compute Zones: Answers to the most essential questions
Europe risks falling behind in AI without massive domestic compute. Could Special Compute Zones fast-track secure, high-performance data centres and safeguard digital sovereignty?
Special Compute Zones: Europe’s recipe for boosting strategic autonomy in AI infrastructure
With only 5% of global AI compute, Europe risks dependence on foreign technology. This op-ed makes the case that Special Compute Zones are key to overcoming bottlenecks and securing digital sovereignty.
AI data centres in Europe: the case for Special Compute Zones
Europe urgently needs faster, greener, and more secure AI infrastructure. Our proposal for Special Compute Zones offers a practical path to close the compute gap and reclaim technological leadership.
Double-edged tech: Advanced AI & compute as dual-use technologies
Advanced AI holds immense potential to benefit humanity but also poses risks when applied in military contexts, such as weapon development or enabling cyberattacks. This brief provides an overview of the ongoing debate surrounding the dual-use nature of advanced AI systems.
Advanced AI: technical state of play
Daan Juijn examines the importance of compute for AI development, and explore how policymakers should capitalise on it.
Enhancing Global AI Governance through Compute Resource Management
To mitigate AI risks, we propose a Global Compute Governance Consortium—an international effort to regulate and track AI’s most critical resource: compute.
