Good Q: how do we get to interoperability among virtual worlds - don't rely on the industry for that?
Learning from the crypto world? Really?
"Technically, this world is interoperable...The only [limits] are contractual" @MistralAI
Very short Qs allowed, mine unanswered: "Worry is partnerships between big tech and small AI companies could steer innovation in a direction that is mostly in the interest of the former. Do you agree?"
Exactly, what I'm missing from this discussion: how does AI competition on the ground really look like? What are the real choices eg for a law firm (Q from the audience) wanting to acquire AI services?
On the way to my still-to-be-cooked spaghetti alle vongole myself!

@BCoeure No civil society representative on the panel? Where are you, Vanessa @beuc @arcapde ?
@BCoeure @beuc @arcapde I could think also of @algorithmwatch @AINowInstitute @edri ...
Thank you for the answer @sebastianobxl (asked about the "weaponized intedependence of assets" concept - new entry into competition policy 🤔?)
@sebastianobxl When talking about the AI Act, sandboxes are hardly mentioned in competition policy circles. Good enough? Promising? Luckily, a very brave Student @unitn has written his Master thesis on - to be discussed very soon!
@sebastianobxl @unitn Digital public goods, bravo Sebastiano!
GenAI as a common carrier - like public utilities, again Sebastiano
Hungarian CA is also a fan of the DMA High level Group 👍
Imagine what might happen if Big Tech switches off cloud computing, if only for one day 😱 @sebastianobxl
@sebastianobxl "Open Data in Transition: Intellectual Property, Competition Policy, and Regulatory Issues" - conf organized with the WIPO in 2013 we can recycle the title for the GenAI age ;-)aliprandi.blogspot.com/2013/12/openda…
@sebastianobxl And now, my fifth keynote by @vestager this week!
@sebastianobxl @vestager BTW, in the framework of G7 Italia I think competition authorities will meet in Rome at the beginning of October to discuss this topic...

The train between Rome and the airport where the idea for this conference emerged is called Leonardo Express #brilliantideatrain
Second time I see @vestager live, first time was at the 2019 special advisors conference - thinking of Heike (met her on train back to the airport with her and discussed ecosystems)
