European AI policy official, Magnus Brunner, has refuted claims that the EU's tech regulation stifles innovation. He argued that Europe's sweeping AI Act provides "guardrails" needed to build trust, while the U.S. takes a more fragmented approach to regulate its own laws. The EU is using AI to track the flow of migrants across Europe and is using it in its new digital entry-exit system. Despite this, Brunner suggested that the US and the EU should work together on tech and AI.
