With the use of AI on the rise, what does the future of Europe's digital future look like? In this conversation, Professor Adam Dixon and Professor Daniel Mügge explore the concept of digital sovereignty in Europe, particularly in the context of artificial intelligence and technology regulation. They discuss the implications of foreign tech dominance, the role of public authorities in shaping digital policies, and the balance between regulation and innovation. The conversation also touches on the responsibilities of parents in managing technology use among children, the potential of AI in healthcare, and the need for Europe to navigate its position in a global tech landscape dominated by the US and China. Ultimately, they advocate for a balanced approach that prioritises citizen engagement and collective self-determination in the digital age.Timestamps:00:00:00 Introduction to Digital Sovereignty03:16 Understanding Digital Sovereignty in Europe05:51 The Role of European Tech Companies08:33 Economic Arguments for European Tech Champions 11:09 Regulation vs. Innovation in Europe 13:44 The Nature of Innovation and Regulation 16:36 Balancing Regulation and Individual Responsibility 19:33 The Role of Parents in Regulating Technology 22:10 The Impact of Technology on Society 25:04 The Future of Digital Regulation29:54 Navigating Information in the Digital Age31:13 Regulatory Dynamics in Europe vs. the USA34:06 The Challenges of Regulating Rapid Technological Change37:50 Balancing Innovation and Regulation in Europe 43:05 The Precautionary Principle in Technological Development 47:37 Corporate vs. State Influence 51:30 Harnessing Big Tech for Public Good
