A lot of bitter europeans would down vote this comment, but saying Murica has pushed you towards China is hypocrisy is at its finest. Your incompetent EU politicians are the ones that has failed you by outsourcing every aspect of sovereignty to the rest of the world instead of self-reliance. You have nobody to blame but yourselves. In one year you'll be blaming China for abandoning the EU when they starts controlling their frontier models.
Maybe we will in a year, but then we'll just complain about China copying protectionism and censorship from the USA.
If that's a comfortable position for you, all good.
We held the US in higher regards, that's all.

We are just disappointed. You have to actually live there :)
I don't think anyone is making the same mistake with China, as open weight models can't be Thanos'd away.

Well you are not wrong, I would also add corrupted and cowardly politicians. We are in worse position than China, and under full control of daddy USA, no matter what they say. If US would pull switch, it would be catastrophe for the EU.
Even the premier EU companies such as ASML are heavily reliant on US supply chain.
But why can't we be bitter?
You can't be bitter because Europe squandered technological and capital market parity with the US in just 20 years.
