The idea of just creating a bunch of big companies with venture capital behind them and they fight it out isn’t the only paradigm. [...] If Switzerland uses 10,000 of its research GPUs and Canada puts forward its research computers, and these resources are put towards open source infrastructure, then you incent researchers to work together and you get quite naturally this idea of the CERN for AI. Not because you go and build one Large Hadron Collider, but because you just pool digital resources that people are already spending money on. If you put a different technical and economic lens on how you organise the work there, Europe and potentially your collaborators are well-situated both to catch up and to leap ahead.
