Artificial intelligence is a rapidly advancing field that policymakers everywhere are struggling to keep up with.
Calls for international, and particularly transatlantic, cooperation are growing.
In Europe, interest in strengthening “ethical” AI policy is particularly strong – including as a way of making Europe more attractive than other jurisdictions around the world.
Close cooperation between Europe and the US is not a given: Europe sees the US as its main competitor in AI; the US wants to join forces against China on AI, but European interest in such a front is weak.
The non-combat military realm may be a good area for transatlantic AI cooperation.
