The AI factory launch comes after the agreement in December 2023 on the EU AI Act, the first global comprehensive law on powerful artificial intelligence models.
The European Commission has proposed the launch of an AI factory, an AI Office, and other AI-related initiatives in a package of measures to support European startups and SMEs in developing trustworthy artificial intelligence (AI) that respects European Union (EU) values and rules.
