Important conversation on AI with @BillGates and digital CEOs.

We have to strike the right balance.

Between the huge potential AI holds for our industry, healthcare, innovation and so much more.

And its regulation, ensuring trustworthiness and our cyber security.

This is why Europe has the AI Act - for innovation under human control.

And we will continue our global engagement on better coordination and common standards.

To manage the rapid development of AI in the interest of humanity.

[Ekaterina Zaharieva @EZaharievaEU]

🇪🇺 Europe believes in global cooperation.
Horizon Europe is already the biggest open research and innovation programme in the world with 23 associated countries and more to come.
🤝 Together, we can turn innovation into impact. (2/2)

[Ekaterina Zaharieva @EZaharievaEU]

It was a pleasure to meet @BillGates to discuss how AI can improve health, boost our economy and make public services work better for citizens.
