Some experts believe the EU, particularly through its control over ASML's advanced chip-making technology, could act as a crucial choke-point to slow down the global AI arms race. However, concerns remain that even if Western nations pause development, countries like China will continue their pursuit of AI dominance, viewing it as essential infrastructure and military capability.
