Gabriel Attal: Revising the European AI Act
Proposal put forward by Gabriel Attal on June 17, 2026. Topic: AI Regulation and the AI Act. The observatory also publishes quotes from 16 other public figures on this topic.
At the same time, he calls for a thorough review of the European AI Act, which he considers unbalanced to the detriment of the freedom to do business, and which acts as a ball and chain on our structures in the face of American and Chinese competitors.
Original quote (French)
Parallèlement, il appelle à revoir en profondeur l'AI Act européen, qu'il juge déséquilibré au détriment de la liberté d'entreprendre, et qui agit comme un boulet aux pieds de nos structures face aux concurrents américains et chinois.Source: attalpresident.fr · archived copy
