At a Paris AI summit, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance strongly criticized the European Union’s regulatory approach to AI and tech giants. He warned that excessive regulation could stifle innovation, likening AI’s potential impact to the steam engine’s invention.

Vance specifically opposed the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA), arguing it could suppress free speech and hinder AI advancements. The U.S. also refused to sign a joint AI declaration with EU leaders.
